This old house is one I remember fondly from my childhood and now have the opportunity to reminisce of days gone by as I metal detect the yard, walls, and floor in search of ancient artifacts. I do find a really neat whiskey "pumpkin seed" bottle as well as some other interesting treasures.

great video Beau!!!! I think the tool you found at about 21:55 is called a "Slick". It is like a large chisel with about a 18" handle and is used to take bark off logs and to flatten out the notch on the logs after the axe roughs it out. At least that is what this eastern Kentucky boy has always been told. Love your adventures brother!!!!

When my Dad changed out the old windows in our house back in the 60's I remember that he pulled out clothes that were stuffed between the walls, I guess for insulation. Also the original windows were with the weights. The stories that went with this house and 2 acres property was the old timers who live back in the day, when people would maybe stop there to water their horses &rest, that sometimes the buggies horses would be there but the people disappeared! There were several wells that were filled in so anytime I'd come home after dark I'd be afraid til I got into the house! We lived out in the country, the next house nearby was a couple of fields away, it was built in the 1800's lot of history around there. So when you find old things I recognize a lot of your finds. Thanks for sharing! Stay safe!

I love old houses. I tried to get permission to look around an old house I lived in at Bonesteel, South Dakota but was denied. The owner was good enough to show me the inside. It sure brought back memories. Keep up the good work, I love your videos.

Hi Beau! Johnny says that the chisel looking thing could be just that or he says it could be called a “framing slick” for doing the mortises and tendons on the barn, or a “mortising chisel.” That big pottery piece looked like part of a crock. If you find the other pieces, it would be cool all glued up. I would love to see that. 😉 Sorry to see that you had a malfunction at the end. I kind of chuckled when you wrote about it being the end of the video. It reminded me of the time you were filming that flash light challenge video with us...”That’s the end of the video”....LOL! 😂

My first inclination was that the chisel like tool is a "slick" but they are used for timber framing. As this was a log cabin I'm more inclined to say it is a "bark spud" used for peeling bark off of logs. You wouldn't leave the bark on logs as it would draw in bugs and start the decaying process, so bark was removed. Looks a bit short (blade) for a slick too.

Glad there were still some old bottles to be found, even if some were newer. Hope you don't get too buried with snow, we are here, and it just keeps comin' down. I got out for a bit of thrifting and picked up a couple of small oil paintings from a local artist, who passed away in 2006 or thereabouts. While doing research I found a coincidence that her husband worked together in the same sawmill in this tiny town out in the boondocks, with my grt. grt. grandma's brother. The paintings are of places I rambled when I was a kid, and so I was happy to be able to get them both for under 20 bucks. Going outside and finding things is such fun in the good weather months here, but not so good or safe in the winter. Thrifting kinda helps pass the time until spring. This was really an interesting prowl Chigg, I hope you get to go back and you take us along with you. Too bad the camera fouled up, but that's just typical of Murphy's Law. What can go wrong, will! LOL At least it wasn't a leak in the new plumbing, done by a carpenter, that my hubby had to fix this morning. The dude put a flooring staple right through the water line. Had to cut the floor open and fix the mess. Right royal pain in the neck that was! We were just glad we caught it before it really got bad. At least our new construction doesn't look like that sad ruin you were crawling through. I was afraid it would come down on your head at any minute and was on the edge of my seat the entire time you were in there. Take care Chigg and watch out for rusty nails...ha ha ha

In my neck of the woods, in the old days home owners would dig trash holes in their yards. We were digging these out mostly for bottles, One of our diggers came across a diamond ring about two foot down. It was valued at $1500. He gave it to his wife. You never know what you might find.
