blackjohn Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Nice chest! It reminds me of the chest I saw in the oldest house on Cape Cod! My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Phillip Black Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Wow, interesting find! And at the bargain price of $8,800.00 too! Sea Captain: Yar, that be handsome pete, he dances on the pier for nickels! Sea Captain: Arrr... you gave him a quarter, he'll be dancin all day.
Captain Jim Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Nice, but for Nine Thousand Dollars? For that sort of plunder I be wantin' provenance, an' tha' chest had best belong to someone mighty damn famous. However, I may have a welder that owes me a favor, so that design might be a good starting place...interesting... My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
Charity Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 WOW, quite a chest indeed :) Wouldn't that look nice in my house when i've my livingroom all nautical style WOW.. As it is, i would love to have a barrel or two be it big or small..
Rumba Rue Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 WOW! Nice chest, too much money for my blood. The guy would be better off trying to sell it through Christie's Auction House than Ebay.
Slopmaker Cripps Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 If I wasn't starting College next Fall, then I'd take the chest. It would round out the decor of my little cottage nicely. Cheers, Adam C., Slop-man
kaizoku Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 Perhaps I could sell my car and truck to afford it "A merry life and a short one be my motto" Avid the PA ren faire, or live nearby? We're trying to start a club/group to do some fun things outside of the faire! www.countyerdoubloons.com/tavern
Hunting Hawk Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 $8,800 Oh, come now mates. It be a pirate chest, I think you could think of a more traditional method of aquisition than "paying" for it. I think, therefor I am. Or maybe I just think I am.
Capt'n Jack Sparrow Posted November 4, 2005 Posted November 4, 2005 Ey the one selling it is the pirate. I have seen that chest on ebay months ago. Most of been Terrible for you Jack , It bloody well is now! - Capt'n Jack Sparrow

Duchess Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 How would you go about getting such nice clean cuts out of the center of a sheet of steel in pre-plasma cutter years?
callenish gunner Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 the process of removing the metal would have been done with a hammer and chissel and then a file to smooth the edges
Duchess Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 the process of removing the metal would have been done with a hammer and chissel and then a file to smooth the edges So, difficult and time consuming is what you're saying. :) Thanks.
oderlesseye Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 Lets steal it! http://www.myspace.com/oderlesseyehttp://www.facebook....esseye?ref=nameHangin at Execution dock awaits. May yer Life be a long and joyous adventure in gettin there!As he was about to face the gallows there, the pirate is said to have tossed a sheaf of papers into the crowd, taunting his audience with these final words: "My treasure to he who can understand."
kaizoku Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 Lets steal it! as captain jack would say... "commandeer" me matey. we don't steal :) anyway though, that chest is purely amazing. but that price tag is a hefty chunk o loot. Perhaps commandeering it for pirate purposes be the best idea "A merry life and a short one be my motto" Avid the PA ren faire, or live nearby? We're trying to start a club/group to do some fun things outside of the faire! www.countyerdoubloons.com/tavern
Capt'n Jack Sparrow Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 Aye, the crime is befitting the booty Most of been Terrible for you Jack , It bloody well is now! - Capt'n Jack Sparrow
callenish gunner Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 time consuming??? they weren't in a hurry to get to the mall or to watch american idol and when you could support your family for a few months on the production of such a chest .... you take your time and do a damned good job
