Iron Canister Shot Trifecta

[Full Metal Digger]

Hello Diggers,
I got out for a couple hours yesterday at the 1794 battle site and got my first-ever trifecta of canister shot. 3 different sizes: 3/4 inch, 1 inch, and 1 1/2 inches. Here's the before and after pics. Thanks for looking and stay safe and healthy!

You are saving lots of history over there, Dave! They cleaned up beautifully. Do you use electrolysis?

Do you use electrolysis?

Yes I do! Through trial and error I have pretty much got it dialed in just exactly right.

SO COOL!! You're going to have some heavy luggage! Nice job, as always!

Wonderful finds Dave! The bottom pic with all the iron ammo and frags looks so cool! Do you plan on some sort of display for them. I imagine collectively they're quite heavy.

Hey John, Thanks for commenting. I plan to display them once I get back to America. They are actually not too heavy because they are in small pieces. The 18-pound cannonball, now that's another story! I imagine it will be in a box by itself with lots of padding so it can't move.

That is just too cool Dave. You will have to give us a tutorial on your electrolysis procedure when you get back.
