    My father was a carpenter, born in 1920 in England. He would have enjoyed this episode very much. I remember when he worked on a very old house near Canterbury, probably 400 years old. He found interesting things pushed into locks and under skirting (base) boards. He had a metal detector and found a Roman horseshoe which the Canterbury museum took. Things may not always be worth much but are part of our history. Thank you for the videos!

    My Grandfather was township trustee. One of his responsibilities was to issue dog tags. They came on a big metal ring in numbered order. I remember them as they always sat on his roll top desk. I would sit at his desk and count the tags on the ring although I had not learned to count. I just made up numbers. LOL

    My cousin used her metal detector on my property as I was finding all sorts of objects while digging for the gardens, but mostly what we found was old car parts from when they repaired their cars back in the 1970's.
    Although, I did find an Indian spearhead or rather it found me. While digging for the ardens, a rock jumped onto my leg. I was going to toss it but a cursory look saw what it was!

The metal detecting sounds like it was fun and, yes, a time capsule with a history of your restoration project would be awesome. Dig it up in 50- 75 years and reflect back on the effort it took to restore and preserve this bit of history. And also go "Geeze! what was I thinking?" And have a good laugh.

    • @bigboy77dk
      @bigboy77dk 3 года назад +5

      As someone, who fights bad depression myself, can I just throw you some advice, that really works for me? Focus on something positive! It sounds so obvious, that you'd think, it does not work - but it does 🙂 First, try to imagine your depression, as a physical illness, like a bad flu. One of the horrible things about depression, is the guilt you feel and the self blaming. But you don't do that, when you fx. have the flu - so imagine, that your depression is just that - a flu. Now, here comes the work. Learn to recognize the start of a down spiral. You might already, but when you start to see the signs, and hear that negative, little voice? You fight it, with something positive! Something, that gives you joy, and makes you happy. That might be hard sometimes - but make the effort to search for something good. People, that make you laugh. A movie, that has great memories. Music! Help someone. Now - hold on to that! Go look in a mirror, and tell yourself, that you are gorgeous. SMILE! Take a nice long shower. Do your hair, and maybe put on some makeup. Look in a mirror again, and SMILE 🙂 If you don't feel like it, do it anyway! Sometimes, you might not be able to stop that downward spiral - but then don't blame yourself, or wallow. Consider it a flu! You don't lay around, blaming yourself, if you have the flu? So give it a little time, while you STILL try to focus on anything positive, you can think of - and you'll see, that the clouds will part again soon 🙂 Also - go get yourself some B- vitamin supplements. One, with lots of different B-vitamins. Take the max dose, every single day! After only 3 weeks, I felt a significant difference!! Belive me, when I say, it is absolutely worth the effort. YOU are worth the effort 🙂

      @@bigboy77dk I would recommend the B Complex from Desert Harvest. It’s the only one I know that doesn’t include B6. B6 can be toxic if you get too much and it’s in so many foods and added to fortified foods. When you take B complexes, it can be easy to get too much B6. You don’t have to worry about the others. It causes nerve damage. It can be irreversible and diesnt even need to be that high to cause damage. Just tossing that out there.

    • @Lucinda_Jackson

      Hang in there Vanessa. Make sure you always have someone you can call when it gets to be too much. A burden shared is a burden halved they say. I know it doesn’t hold true for depression, but it definitely helps if you feel less alone and to hear someone say they care. Hoping for brighter days ahead for you. 🌻

    Love how the rooms are coming along! SS Strekfus Steamers were a fleet of steamboats along the Mississippi out of St. Louis. The Sailorette was probably one of their fleet.

    • @11sfr
      @11sfr 3 года назад +3

      Sailorette is an outdated term for a female sailor, Streckfus gave those tokens out as souvenirs to women passengers. This one is probably pre-1930s, as the ones I've seen from the '30s and later had the individual ship's name on them, but this one looks like a generic design for the whole line. They had, I believe, 5 riverboats for most of the 1920s - Washington, Dixie Belle, Capitol, Deluxe, and Saint Paul

    • @metaldetectingphil
      @metaldetectingphil 3 года назад +1

      Thanks lisa and 11sfr. That token is the other item I described wrong as a "religious medal". Wasn't till I got it home and cleaned as best I could that I did the research and an typed an accurate description on the photo that Kaleb uploaded in the video. An identical example I saw online listed it as a 1920 item, from a Streckfus steamboat, most likely on the St. Louis riverfront long before the 1940 Admiral took over there.

    I can’t tell you how much I love this channel. Sheer history of it all is incredible. Today people are so quick to lock everything down tear things apart and put some thing new with the thought that new is always better. I think not, new has no history. What you’re doing is bringing back what was so wonderful about the way things were built Wayback in the day. I know this i’m in the process of building a new house, i’m an old piece of property. I constantly find a little remnants of what was there before a door knob,a fire poker, A deck of cards that was wrapped in an old shirt a newspaper and put inside a shoebox, surprisingly it wasn’t that badly damaged, and so many more. I would probably like to use some of this in my new home.

      Just the reminder that boiling an metal with a less "noble" one should transfer oxidation to the sacrificial one... Silver can be polished or acid washed but I best like putting down aluminum foil in a baking sheet, cutlery and barely cover it in water setting the oven to 100 C while deep I clean the kitchen (steaming the oven insides allows for easy cleanup too).

      Well there is always something to do in this home electric or not. That being said as soon as that is in and inspections are done i can start sealing these rooms up things will move much faster.

    I wish you would do a “Restoration Registry” here on your channel. That way we could “buy” exactly what it is you may need or want from specific stores and have then delivered to you. I’d be all over that!!

      that's really hard to do. the items he really needs have to be researched and found, this isn't like a shopping list at Home Depot or Lowes.

    Another great video! Phil found such a treasure trove and I can’t wait to see what he unearths next time. The plaster is looking good. Hope the weather holds so you don’t have any more big problems with it. Loved the overmantel and that gorgeous marble sink! You’re finding such beautiful things for your home.
    Going over to scope out the new channel and sub there, too! Gotta support our Kim!

    A fact I found out when we researched one of our old family homes. They use to throw everything away in the old outhouse. So, if you find an outhouse, put a mask and gloves on and dig away! The people that own our old family home now have found all kinds of pottery and dish pieces in there and in the yard.

      Well while i cannot be a 100% certain that there was no outhouse on the property. The house was built with a bathroom/ indoor plumbing from the beginning. A very upscale feature at the time. Also there was no home on the property prior to this house. So while its possible i find it some what unlikley. But i hear what your saying i used to work at a place where a guy had dug up 100s of St. Louis Outhouses and the artifacts are stunning to say the least. A huge amount of history in those holes.

    Best to put in some UTP cable Category 6a in the ceilings of each floor and run them down to a central point where you'll have your ISP modem later. That way you can install WIfi Access Points and you'll be futureproof because the cable can go up to 10 times current gigabit speeds.
