 Re: Pouring hearth
Uno,
Here in Ontario at least, it was traditional for 19th century masons to bury a bottle somewhere after their work was done. I have a hand blown whiskey bottle I found in the front of the house because of this tradition. I've put all kinds of things into the walls of my house and parts of the oven: coins, newspapers, bottles, notes. Why not? Should be fun for the people who might find them one day.
Jim
