Spit & Polish

Hidden by the bench in my shed has been this shell casing another gift from Clare’s parents. I have looked at it each time i have entered the shed and thought to myself; “one day if I have the time”, today became the day I found the time.
To start anyway.
Brasso, a yellow duster and elbow grease but with a very fine soft wire brush to start with.

I’ve since tried to trace its origins via a Twitter contact, a Naval Historian, and night yet have found a home for it.
