I must say you look very "dapper" with your current hair cut. You look like a valued member of society (well almost haha). Great digs again plus as usual a great video. I enjoy your videos as you inject a small history lesson on the company. All very interesting. Please keep them coming. Cheers, Pete (down under).
Hey Ned, your mystery peice of iron looks to be an old wagon seat spring it would have had another straight peice coming off the other side originally.....just my guess I have seen them that were made the same as that.
@@BottleNed No doubt they'd break under such pressure. Still, you do a great job digging and teaching me. But, a cathedral pickle remains on my bucket list... I too have found a couple of broken ones : ( Keep up the good work.
Best timing for new bottle vid. Stuck at home with stupid virus and so over watching crappy shows. Your videos are the best, not boring like other UA-camrs. Love all the characters but Chucky Cheese needs subtitles, we Aussies find him hard to understand 😆
Bottle Ned, the piece of iron with the loop on is call a watchamacallit here in East Tennessee, all your videos are awesome to watch and very informative.
You're cool. Thanks for the video. In our part of the planet, so many bottles are rare, and there is always a lot of water in the ground and the pits are not so deep. But we try and our expeditions for bottles are also interesting to many and more like survival.
Never imagined that it would be possible Ned, but you have managed to out do (pun intended) your previous world class and suave haircut.It's remarkably similar to the John Ritter character Vaughn Cunningham in the great movie Sling Blade....just a coincidence I suppose?
We have a Sanborn map and a yard in historic Oroville California and want to dig a hole. We are bottle hunters that got most of our collection out of the mud in the Bay Area but moved up here last year to an old house on the edge of old downtown and are interested in seeing what is in the yard where the map show an outhouse. How can we communicate with you further about this in private?
Howard, they dug a very wide hole at an angle (think of an ice cream cone), then started the walls at the bottom, then slowly back filled as they built to the top
They would build the wood liner as they went down to prevent collapse. A lot of retired miners living in the area who had no problem with digging a hole !!
My Grandma was a militant tee totaler... Anyone who knew her didn't dare show up at her house smelling like likker.... Ironically, she would imbibe a healthy dose of Geritol every morning... Geritol is loaded up with a stout portion of alcohol...🥴..... She never found out... Nobody ever said anything about it... They didn't dare... Grandma was a formidable woman who didn't handle disappointment gracefully...😂
Woo-hoo it's Ned love your videos
The history of the finds AND the campy bad humor are perfect. I don’t know how you don’t have thousands more subscribers. Love it. 😎
Those are some BEAUTIFUL western blown glass bottles. Good finds.
I'm so excited. You're my all-time favorite bottle digger.
OSHA approved invisible shoring, I use it all the time! 👍🤣
Alreety😃Bottles👍

I’d buy that for a dollar ! Thanks !!
Those broken cathedral pickles are serious heartbreakers. I learn a lot from your channel... well done!
They are usually found broken because they’re so BIG, so there’s more surface area to break !

Loved all the bottles found
Botillian Ned, awesome digs! Good call on that deep hole, we all know the dangers of a deep, dark unexplored hole. Better to live to dig another day.
Yeah, I hate the deep ones…especially in unstable soil and all you have with you is invisible shoring…
Item at 21:12 carriage spring it was to make the ride smoother

I also have to double-up the audio of all of Chucky’s lines. Need to get Rain man to talk louder….!

Lol we call a “one of those”
Found a few! if it was easy they wouldn't be so cool. but a hole full of cali sodas and meds would rock! ✌🤠
Seriously….more western stuff please

i love your videos!!!!
The excavator makes such a huge difference and save hours of shovelling!
I'd take the beautiful green pickle and put a tea lite in it and enjoy the glow. Omg I'd take all those broken pieces and be happy 😊
I actually saved the shards! I figure some artist type would want them for a mosaic
Finally
You needed to find an Ayers hair vigor🙃
Bottle ned, come to the England and dig here. You can still dig the west (yorkshire) 😅
Really fun video! Where exactly did you get that haircut?
I think I got drunk and went to the lawnmower store
@@BottleNed 😂😂😂🤣

Dang…sling blade! The best (and possibly only) compliment that haircut could ever get!
Great channel. Messed up hair do! Or is that a hair don't?
Don’t ever again, I hope….!
Neeeedd!!!
Ever find any notes inside bottles?
Yeah but mostly newer ones. One time I found an old check from the 50s inside a Art Deco cold cream jar…
@@BottleNed lol! an old check written with the ink from an extinct "John Muir Squid"
The metal piece looks like half of a mule bit but it's probably a part of a buggy spring.

How did they dig such a deep hole back in the day?

@@BottleNedI agree with Ned on the wood liners, I was referring to deep rock lined wells and privys in colonial and 1800’s New England.
The pee wee Herman haircut
I’m headed to the movie theatre…!
Comedian Jeff Dunham has a puppet that reminds me of you with that haircut! 😂. Love your vids Ned!
That would have been a1cent haircut in the 1860's
Half a cent 😆

Yeah,bad hair...
Ya need to get a new hairdresser
Should’ve hired my mom instead
Hey...at least you have hair. It will eventually grow back. I think your hair looks just fine for a Californian.
I have my grandfather's generics...
Hey! Did anyone have bad hair in “Point Break”??
Sup Ned?
