roytheodd Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 About a year and a half ago I wanted to fashion myself a belly box, but thanks to my natural inclination to do little or nothing I still haven't made one. In the thread I started then asking for advice I was told that a cartridge box was found on the Whydah. Does anyone have any pictures of it or any idea of where I can find out more info about it? I'm inclined to buy one but the earliest I can find is the 1750s: The Quartermaster General Pepe's Possibles C & D Jarnagin Company I really like the idea of making a fabric one like was found on the Whydah though. Every time I look at period pictures of the famous captains I see their boxes and I wants one.
Cut-throat Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 You might want to PM BlackJohn regarding it. I know he has a slew of amazing pictures of the Whydah salvage items....either that, or he knows where to get them.

LadyBarbossa Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Ok.... Be there a picture some where of this Whydah cartridge box? G Gedney Godwin has quite the selection of cartridge boxes. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
roytheodd Posted May 14, 2008 Author Posted May 14, 2008 Ok.... Be there a picture some where of this Whydah cartridge box? willie wobble posted to the right thread. There is a picture on page 2 of the thread, about 1/3 the way down the page. As it turns out, I've received a PM from someone making repros in the near future so I think I'm going to buy one from him. Sloth wins over industry yet again.
