Canteens


Well its two for one blog day. This is real quick about canteens...gotta have your water. Wood, tin, copper, bota. You have a lot of options. It's pretty much what you like and you may have to try a few different types before you settle on one.

The bota will of course be used on our expeditions down to Fort Charlotte when we portray Spanish militia. Wooden options can be a drum or barrel, and of course the British style kidney in Tin and or copper. Beg, borrow, or appropriate a copy of "Collector's Illustrated Encyclopedia of the American Revolution" and "The Frontier Rifleman" for your many options.
