Nice!

That cartridge box (which is from the Phips wreck, which I'm pretty sure we've talked about before) looks alot like the one from the Whydah.

Here's the link to the Phips wreck:

Wow! Those sites are incredible! I am particularly interested in the cartridge box, which is very similar to the one found in the wreckage of the Whydah. Does anyone know exactly how the inner wooden supports for the pouch were constructed? I wonder if there are any other original examples of these types of cartridge pouch with the wooden pieces intact, so we could see how they are made and put together? :lol:
