Is there a directory or a compendium or something of date-based nailing patterns? I'd like to have a look at that, if possible.

If I understand what you're talking about, Martin, a book like that would have a market. People will buy it if you can put it together. Millions? No, probably not. But thousands, yes, I'd think so...not just reenactors, but historians and those who want to date finds by patterns, that would be a big help. Hey, I'd buy one, just to be the first one on my block to have it, assuming I don't have to sell the farm to get one.
Might need a footnote or two, though... :wink: :!:
