My first King George and a cannon ball!!

I was hoping we'd bet an update on that cannonball from HeavyMetalNut's post. Congrats. That's a beauty! Buy it for fifty bucks!
 
Tried to clean out the hole....a little bit of mud,then solid metal,ut-oh:fright::hide::runaway::help::scared:


You should contact someone who is an expert in them. I think the chances of it going off are pretty slim, but for me a find like that isn't worth it to me if there's even the smallest risk something could happen. Even just having to think about what to do is probably not wort it for me, and I'm glad all mine solid. I would not keep that in the house until I was sure.

I have a friend who has a couple 8 pounders, fuse still in, and he cleaned them with a sandblaster! ....and keeps them in the house! That is definitely not me, and I did enough dumb things when I was young there ain't no way I'm going to take any risk from a chunk of iron.
