Are you a picker?

Thanks --- I like it, too. One nice thing about living in farm country is I can find some cool old rusty gold. That's the stuff I like. I'll clean this thing up and put it on display somewhere around my house.

I had a darn good haul this weekend. My favorite pick was a 20' logging chain, with great hooks on it, for 10 bucks. Sure, it's old and rusty but I'm thinking the steel is this old chain is a much better quality than any new chain I could buy. Not to mention the cost difference.

Submerge it in vinegar for a week and it to look good as new.

Cool find! Can't believe the glass is still intact.

Especially once I figured out how old it actually was.
