You should be on Discovery Channel. The way you explain and show findings is a good learning and entertaining for people who truly want to understand. :)
Hey- Really enjoy your clips. Your appreciation for nature is a plus. I've been watching on and off for quite awhile. You've formed a rapport with your viewers over time. Keep filming for us.
Time stamp 2:10 table for a drill press !The wife & I think this is much better then The history channel. Keep up the good work! . Keep up the good work we love watching !!
Hi Beau. I started up metal detecting and I just found an old 16th century pistol bullet in an area called Shooters Hill. Found out it comes from Highwaymen and robbers. Thanks for the influence!
Hey Beau, I really enjoy your videos as well as your humor. I would love to see you on History or Discovery. I agree the you could never make a video too long. Have a happy new year.
whooo hooo baby :) i like all of this video Beau no apology needed , its not just about digging up valuable thing, it fun to learn you (we throw you) have found,discovered,uncovered,a long forgotten past that sheds light on how things have change in past few 100 year and its been 50 of trash left to find on top of it, its truly amazing :)
The scabbard you found is a fraternal sword used in the York Rite of Freemasonry. Most likely Knights Templar (highest degree of the YR), but absolutely York Rite by the crown and cross symbol. Great finds!
+Kern Dean That's such a shame. They could simply unsharpen it and give it to a children in a foster home or something. I would've love to have a real unsharpen sword in my hands when I was a child even if It was such a recent craft.
Amazes me how rivers were used as refuse dumpsters. As if the water just dissolves and washes away everything. But I have to admit it sure is fun looking through the stuff. Cool bottles! Thanks for taking me along...another fun video.
yeah beau, if your finding that much bottles there, you might be interested in digging the side of the creek, I'm sure you could find some more old bottles !
I envy you your youth, your health, and your finds, Beau. Your videos are always a pleasure to watch. I should have thought, though, that by now you'd have discovered enough lead to become a major supplier to an automotive battery manufacturer. A belated Merry Christmas to you, and all the best in 2015!
Very cool treasure hunting. My understanding is that smooth bore muskets we commonly used by military during civil war for speed of loading. Rifle marks may or may not indicate fired bullets. Great to see a that history being preserved.
@Beau Ouimette thanks for the awesome videos. My dad and uncle have been relic hunters for years and there getting older so I decided to join them and make a few memories since they can no longer do some of the things we used to do. I used my dads old Ace 250 and really racked up on the civil war bullets, brass horse tacks, shotgun shells, and I even found a gilded button which was awesome.. Now I'm hooked so I'm buying my self an At Pro like my dad and uncle have and that new Garrett pointer lol .. Well good luck and keep making videos we love them .. Thanks
I love all the finds but the lock is great and the wedge really got me excited, what a great find!!!! Late Merry Christmas and enjoy all the new year brings my friend.
I am very interested, I've been sucked in as I'm sure most of your fans have haha. A very interesting hobby indeed. Thanks for the uploads, keep it up bud!! Love it.
2:11 That's an old coil from an antique metal detector. Maybe the first AT Gold. They were hard-core back in the day. I see similar blue Milk of Magnesia bottles on Ebay going at a "buy it now price of $10," to give you an idea of the value. I would keep it. It's pretty cool. I also checked on the Melons Infants Food bottle: $20 buy it now price on Ebay.
It is amazing how bottles survive all the decades without breaking from freezing, etc. I bet you have a nice collection. In our area there is a fellow named Digger Dave who is selling off his finds. He probably has one of the best collections ever.
Great video as always! Being a bottle collector I always have my eyes open for bottle shapes and I'm pretty sure I saw a squat blob top soda bottle at 1:23 on the right side of the screen. I may be wrong but just a heads up in case you go back to that spot. :)
Beau, that is a Knights of Columbus, ceremonial sword. I have one just like it. if you can get the blade out, you might have the person's name. It looks like you have the upper middle section. Usually the name is etched on the blade in this area.
your life seems so interesting! i go hiking alot and the only interesting thing i have ever came across was an old horse carraige from way back in the day and it was buried with moss and vines but in great condition
I gotta show my wife the end of this video, Beau. I showed her another video and she kept saying "That's a ring. That's a ring, too. I told her "No it's a shell." Maybe she'll listen to you! The round thing you picked up after the section of parlor stove is part of a cream separator(probably De Laval). The jack thingy looks like part of a grain drill(a planter for small grains) The ratchet is for depth adjustment and the horn shaped piece is the part that the seed drops thru into the dirt. Later, man. 57
***** With the price of iron and steel now, these creekside dumps will disappear with time by rust. So it's good for the environment-- and bad for relic hunters in the future. I guess the bottles will survive, though. 57
You are the luckiest man! There is nothing I like more than finding ancient items buried in dirt, sunken in the water, or just left behind on land! I love archaeology... How did I spell that without auto correct?
The Minie ball would be packed separate from the powder, although in the same paper tubes. Separate from the powder so the waxy lube doesn't contaminate the black powder.
Another awesome video! Glad to see you uploading more often now! Of course i'm sure it all depends on the finds. A video of modern day trash wouldn't be too amusing. But i wish you the best of luck with the final days of 2014 and much more for 2015! Take care man.
The scabbard may also be from the knights of Malta as well. I have a sword and scabbard that look very close. And it is indeed ceremonial... duller than a bowling ball.
I often wondered why there's lots of those little clam shells in heaps or close together in some of your videos, now I know why. Great to see these videos, an education too ;-) Have a great 2015 Beau!
I wonder if that whole contraption was some type of steam driven engine or something that was over heating and driven to the river to explode. I think I just wrote an entire movie in my head about that. lol
You should be on Discovery Channel. The way you explain and show findings is a good learning and entertaining for people who truly want to understand. :)
Up here in PA in the mountains I found about 5-10 glass gallon jugs used for moonshining at an old collapsed shack made of stone... Pretty cool find
I am not usually into bottles a lot but I really like that clear bottle. it's a beauty
Hey-
Really enjoy your clips. Your appreciation for nature is a plus. I've been watching on and off for quite awhile.
You've formed a rapport with your viewers over time. Keep filming for us.
The scabbard is a Knights Templar scabbard from the York Rite. Which is a part of a masonic lodge.

Thanks Beau. You have given me a new hobby to start up!

Love watching your finds, and I gotta say you are one very handsome man!
The scabbard you found is a fraternal sword used in the York Rite of Freemasonry. Most likely Knights Templar (highest degree of the YR), but absolutely York Rite by the crown and cross symbol. Great finds!
+James McMillen I concur with your finding of the scabbard ID,
Any idea why it was in a river. Do you think they disowned the guy?
BurnRoddy disowned or buried with it near the river and then erosion took over
+Kern Dean That's such a shame. They could simply unsharpen it and give it to a children in a foster home or something. I would've love to have a real unsharpen sword in my hands when I was a child even if It was such a recent craft.
The little wedge is totally awesome..... what a find!
Nice to see sunshine and warmth. I know it was last summer but still looks nice when it's 20 degrees here in Michigan.
Amazes me how rivers were used as refuse dumpsters. As if the water just dissolves and washes away everything. But I have to admit it sure is fun looking through the stuff. Cool bottles!
Thanks for taking me along...another fun video.
Everything in your pile was super-exciting to me! I actually held my breath when we went under the water! Great video. Can't wait for the next.
Very cool. I love finding the old dumps like that. Trash in one time period,...treasure in another.
Thanks for taking us along with you, I really enjoy your videos.
Love your videos. The mystery behind all the of the things you find judt thrills me beyond belief.
yeah beau, if your finding that much bottles there, you might be interested in digging the side of the creek, I'm sure you could find some more old bottles !

your welcome :)
freddieeatsgoldcoins
I love all the finds but the lock is great and the wedge really got me excited, what a great find!!!! Late Merry Christmas and enjoy all the new year brings my friend.
Cool finds! I think that i would also have kept the pot-bellied stove and attempted to reconstruct it..
This is certainly one of the most fascinating things on TH-cam. I feel like I'm on an adventure.
I am very interested, I've been sucked in as I'm sure most of your fans have haha. A very interesting hobby indeed. Thanks for the uploads, keep it up bud!! Love it.

Such a good hunt. Love all the relics and the bottles are sweet!
Nice finds Beau! Cool scabbard thingy!
Nice hunt and a pleasure to watch. Great to see your hard work pays off,thanks for uploading. Best to your next hunt! -Jeff
Awesome Finds Beau!! You did great!
Haha... You think everything is a gun now... :-) Love the videos!
Great video Beau. Plenty of bullets and interesting items. Cheers Dave
Funny video, subbed, I found it entertaining when you dropped the split shot.
Another great video. The longer the video the better Lol. Take care happy hunting Shawn
Nice collection!Great finds!Keep up the good videos!
Your videos are so calm and thats what i like
Your videos are great and with all the stuff you find and keep I have to ask...where do you keep it all? do you have a barn filled with these finds?
+Beau Ouimette where do you find this stuff is it in your backyard if so what state do you live in
+Aquachigger Do you know of one of these places in GA?
It is amazing how bottles survive all the decades without breaking from freezing, etc. I bet you have a nice collection. In our area there is a fellow named Digger Dave who is selling off his finds. He probably has one of the best collections ever.
Great Vid! Really enjoy watching them. Keep them coming!!
nice finds beau great scabbard and bottles :-) ..hope you had a good xmas and all the best for 2015
Nice find in that sward. Great hunt. Have a Happy New Year. Karla
Thank you
Great video as always! Being a bottle collector I always have my eyes open for bottle shapes and I'm pretty sure I saw a squat blob top soda bottle at 1:23 on the right side of the screen. I may be wrong but just a heads up in case you go back to that spot. :)
That would be a great area to look for old bottles !!!
I'm new. I love the journey's we get to take with you. I love it!
Another great video. Happy Christmas to you and yours Beau!
Ive never seen a baby food bottle like that... very cool dig :)
Beau, that is a Knights of Columbus, ceremonial sword. I have one just like it. if you can get the blade out, you might have the person's name. It looks like you have the upper middle section. Usually the name is etched on the blade in this area.
Nice finds Bud, enjoyed watching it...great work and love the underwater finds...Keep at it Bud, Best of Luck in 2015!!!
Nice scabbard. Another great video.
You're like the American version of Deep Digger Dan! Really glad I found your channel, subscribed for sure! :D
You had a really nice day in the water. GL&HH
NEVER SKIPPING TO THE END your videos are great !
6:15 it's a war hammer 😂
nice random finds
Very sweet finds!!!
your life seems so interesting! i go hiking alot and the only interesting thing i have ever came across was an old horse carraige from way back in the day and it was buried with moss and vines but in great condition
i live in a small town that has only been here for 55 years so its neat to know people use to live here before.
Always love watching your videos beau. Hope you had a good christmas.
I was thinking, if it is an older one it will have an ivory handle, it might still be where you found this. Might want to go look.
I gotta show my wife the end of this video, Beau. I showed her another video and she kept saying "That's a ring. That's a ring, too. I told her "No it's a shell." Maybe she'll listen to you!

Your such a joy to watch thanks keep up the work
This looks so fun!!! Now I wanna work in architecture
Architecture is buildings, do you mean archaeology ? good luck with either :)
I always have to wonder about the story of each fired bullet.
The story of how the bullet got there, was it fired?, was it dropped?, did it kill or wound anyone or animal? I like to wonder it too, bruh.
yeah. stuff like that is so cool
You are the luckiest man! There is nothing I like more than finding ancient items buried in dirt, sunken in the water, or just left behind on land! I love archaeology... How did I spell that without auto correct?
What you do seems awesome, lucky guy haha
Bro, you got great stuff.Class for video.
awesome video the longer the better

Have a great 2015 Beau!
When he said hold your breath did anyone else hold their breath
me
Me to lol
+DaBean 07 lol me to i even pretended to pick it UP
I hold it in too.
I did
At the start it was like you found where somebody dumped the still in the river. Stove, bottles and other tubing looking stuff in the water
6: 50 to the right of the bottle. 2" to the right looks like an arrow head. what States this lots of flint I would love to hunt there lol.
you should open a museum for all of your finds I think that'd be really cool.
This would be an amazing tv show.. just given ya ideas!
I wonder if that whole contraption was some type of steam driven engine or something that was over heating and driven to the river to explode. I think I just wrote an entire movie in my head about that. lol
Id watch it
as I was reading this I made a movie too.........
I adore your videos!
2:27 Am I THE ONLY one who saw that remington rifle? ;-;
no
nope
I think it was a stick or two pieces of metal crossed together
Nathan correct there's no rifle
rifle?where
Thanks another great video happy hunting
Beau, what do you do with the encrusted relics you like, do you clean them or leave as is?
I hope I wasn't the only one that held my breath when he told me to.
I thought I was the only one
Hi. I have a question. Out of curiosity, have the relics at Gettysburg been harvested or do they remain part of the site
where are you finding all this cool stuff freakin awesome oh yeah I read a book about the Civil War
Always enjoy your videos. The musket balls i find in the uk dont have history yours do
Great video!
That is really nice bottle it has a red color too
I found some bullet like these but didnt know whos was whos so thank u for letting me know
Beau, that potbelly stove looks like someone blew it up or something. Nice bottle.
Enjoyed it!
18:00 In my opinion its a sword inside the case,Good videos by the way.
I have a question, What do u do with the stuff you find? Do you keep em?
is there some silver at 2:45 ? top right corner
Great videos Beau, are you going to try out the new Garret Waterproof Pinpointer?
U the best finder for stuff
GREAT VIDEO!!
i love your videos and want to try this out someday
Curious are these bullets all there due to battles or are they washed down into the creeks and rivers with heavy rains and such?
Probably from the civil war
I believe that was a horses plow? 6:20
