Soon after three storms in a week, which raised the river to flood levels, I went back to the big old dumpsite cliff, to see what the river had revealed.
I think that I was the 1st mud larker back, the river was still very high, and I needed waders to get there... it was a tiny bit dangerous, and quite a lot of fun. The video I captured is not the best though, sorry... I hope the resulting video is still enjoyable.

It would be great to meet up down our way! It has been along time since we last met up and it is long overdue. We have a new campervan so we may be venturing to Yorkshire too. We love the beads and so many lead toys, brilliant!! :)
@tomburleigh9261
@tomburleigh9261 2 года назад
Fantastic! A campervan is something I would dearly love to have... I hope you have wonderful travels in yours. We're planning on hiring one for a while this year, but heading up the East Coast to Scotland, with Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay, and a few other places along the way. If I could afford one, a mud larking tour in stages all around the UK would be the plan. If you're heading Yorkshire way, it would be great to see you again; and I'll keep saving for travels with the South being high on the list. 🙂

I believe Lead & thick gloves go together for health & safety. Best wishes!

@tomburleigh9261 2 года назад
We do, but I think I've found a better way. First, I use a wet wipe on the end of a stick, that's pretty good at scrubbing out the inside. If there's more to move, I put in a handful of copper wire pieces (about 1cm long), a bit of water, and a vigorous shake.... that's very good at removing a lot. If there's some bits that even that can't remove, a piece of stiff copper wire usually can. 🙂

Hello my friend. You found a trove of tiny treasures. Congratulations. My favorites are still the glass bottle stoppers. We have stoppers for perfume and the like but not my all time favorites - the green, clear glass stoppers from sauce bottles that you have. Have you tried the Polident Denture Cleaning tablets to clean your bottles? Just drop one in a bottle, add water and let it sit over night. They are big tablets so would have to crush it first. I've heard it works very well but don't know for sure. Thanks for another great video.
@tomburleigh9261
@tomburleigh9261 2 года назад
Hi Janice, and thank you. Yes, I've tried Polident, but the stains in the bottles here resist them. I've found my method... first, scrubbing the inside with a wet-wipe on the end of a stick. If that fails, I use cut up bits of copper wire and a bit of water, vigorously shaken. If that fails, I scrub the offending bit with the end of a thick copper wire. I think the simple sauce bottle stoppers are my favourites too; aqua coloured with bubbles, and plain... just beautiful glass. 🙂

Great video Tom! With regards to the inkwell with the difficult to clean inner lip I've tried a few methods over the years on that but two stand out: a small amount of water, sand and tiny steel ball bearings that can be whirled around while inverted (then use a small magnet to get them out) or one of those flexible drain cleaning wire snakes (the kind you find near the tills in a Wilkinsons for example) but that method takes a lot of wiggling around and even then there's always that last tiny little speck which will stick out like a sore thumb. Good luck and thank you for the excellent content you provide! As a side note, I loved the old MTV oddities the early stuff was great.

Thank You for another very enjoyable video. The stretch of road where you stopped on the way home seemed familiar to me but so does a lot of the road crossing the Yorkshire Moors. To clean inside the rim of the inkwell could I suggest filling the well with Dettol Mould and Mildew remover. turn the well upside down carefully, trying to get as much fluid into the rim, then leave for several hours or overnight, then repeat the process until you are satisfied with the outcome.

I’m late to the party because I just recently discovered you and am catching up on all your posts! Not sure if anyone else has mentioned it, but those two small cut glass or crystal “bottles” appear to be individual salt and pepper shakers. I actually had some of them when I had a big house and entertained a lot. Each guest gets his or her own set, so they don’t have to ask for salt or pepper to be passed around. They can make a formal table setting look even more formal. And are quite costly, depending on the maker. Mine were simple crystal, with silver tops, not the pricey ones like from Tiffany. Love watching and especially listening to you in Tennessee, USA! Thanks for another stellar journey!

@permiebird937
@permiebird937 2 года назад
Wonderful finds, that blue poison is a star find! The lead shot looks like a fishing weight. A very common style is a round ball with a cut that is open enough to put the fishing line inside the cut and close it up with a pair of pliers. The uneven closure doesn't matter in fishing. Aquachigger, when he metal detects rivers in the US south east, frequently finds civil war bullets that have been turned into home made fishing weights, so if it was a musket ball, it was probably turned into a fishing weight before ending up in that dunp.

@izzymedel929 2 года назад
Tom, I was thinking about the issue with the Verdigris. Although, I am not sure if it is a truly workable solution or more of an exercise in chemistry.😅 Verdigris from the dump is most likely copper carbonate CuCO3, although if you were closer to the sea it might be copper chloride CuCl2🤔. The verdigris should convert to a copper sulfate (sulphate) CuSO4 solution in hot concentrated sulphuric acid H2SO4. Once no more verdigris will dissovle transfer liquid, leaving behind left over verdigris, to a clean glass. Do not use a filter paper since any remaining H2SO4 will react with it; a ceramic filter would be fine. Suspend a zinc bar, scuffed with steel wool to increase available surface area, into the solution. The zimc.will replace the copper causing copper solids to precipitate out. The balanced equation: CuCO3 + H2SO4 ➡️ CuSO4 + H2O + CO2 and then CuSO4 + Zn ➡️ Cu + ZnSO4 The H2SO4 needs to be highly concentrated and heating the acid is needed to make this a redox reaction instead of an acid-base reaction, because copper ion is less reactive than the acid's hydrogen ion. If you do try this be careful using high molar sulfuric acid, it is nasty stuff! When adding the verdigris I would crush it up and add it slowly to avoid splashing. Always wear proper safety gear and have good ventilation. 🥽🥼🧤😊 The sad part is I think ZnSO4 is unsafe for aquatic life. So honestly I am not sure which is worse between the verdigris and ZnSO4 enviromenally speaking. 😢 Cost wise copper is currently worth three times more than zinc and H2SO4 is inexpensive, but I am unsure the disposal cost or protocol for ZnSO4. It was a good thought experiment for me I suppose and hopefully an interesting read for you.😅 ~Constancia M.
@tomburleigh9261
@tomburleigh9261 2 года назад
That was a very interesting read for me, thank you Constancia. 🙂 I've seen another method with Copper carbonate; heat it deprived of oxygen with carbon powder. Supposedly, it would decompose the copper oxide amongst it too back to metallic copper. I'd like to try both methods, I think I have close to 4kg of Verdigris to experiment with... but I'll probably go with the simplest, least dangerous, and least polluting option first; I don't have lab conditions, or lab tools, like an extractor hood; and haven't yet found anyone who'd take hazardous waste and deal with it responsibly in the local area. I do enjoy Chemistry, but... don't want to be stuck with poisonous waste.

This section of river bend,I do not know it,as I live an ocean away.I don’t ask the location,but I suspect that many do indeed know of its whereabouts. But,I marvel at its cliffs,those dangerous cliffs! You find treasure and rubbish,and you treat them both the same. I respect this sentiment very much.

Oh! Also,I absolutely love that you mentioned Kit and Kaboodlers! They are of the folk that appreciate the tiny. Those two lovely ladies live dollhouse-wise,that’s how they see their world. I love them.

Yes, an ever larger number of people know the whereabouts... I think I was the first to film there, and I've given a lot of clues, and filmed there with at least 3 of the 8 channels I know of who've found it. The more videos there are there, the more non-video making people find it too, which does somewhat decrease the video making potential; I don't mind, so long as more people are taking some of the trash alongside the treasures. Fleur, Kate and Oscar really are as lovely in real life as they are on video; I've had the great pleasure of meeting up with them twice, once just before the Pandemic struck.... and once fairly recently, I still have a video from then to edit up. I hope I'll get to meet up with them again more this coming year too. 🙂

Thanks Sarah, and I'm sorry if my premiere hurt your livestream numbers at all. I'll have a look and see if there's any other good time I could upload. 8PM on Sunday has been the time I've released about 80% of my videos... because that's when YT analytics say the largest number of audience is online; of course YT will say that to every mudlarking channel; we share most of the same audience, so it doesn't necessarily make sense for us all to upload at the same time... I guess that's why Northern Mudlarks shifted to Mondays. 🙂

there are a couple of hundred comments since you made your video, but you did ask how to remove verdigris from copper: make a paste of equal parts vinegar, flour and salt. allow to dry on the surface to be cleaned, rinse clean with soap. your finds areas are stunning for the clay & soil strata.

Thanks for you lovely videos, Tom, but most of all for your obvious love of the land and for nature. You clearly are a natural and caring steward of the water and land, and stand out as such. Your dig sites are spectacular. I'm afraid that if your sites were being dug here in the States, the "professional" diggers would be literally fighting over the spaces for the "valuables," and being rudely Indiscriminate about the damage inflicted to the waterways, let alone giving a care about leaving lead and plastics lay about, instead of doing their small part to remove what they can of it while passing through. I suppose I really shouldn't generalize so; there are certainly those here who care. However, they are certainly the exception here, and not the rule. Thanks again for the entertainment, and gentle inspiration, via role modeling. Peace!

WOW, you found lots of goodies. You may try some UV resin to get the shine on glass and bottles stoppers.
@tomburleigh9261
@tomburleigh9261 2 года назад
Thanks Pam, I might give that a go... though UV resin is quite costly here, so it might have to be reserved for a few select bottles. 🙂
