My daughter and I’s “make a shark tooth display” craft day
Rock36 posted a topic in Member Collections
So today was a long day in the making, but it was “make a shark tooth display” craft day for my 15-year-old daughter and I. We both dive for teeth together, but all these were purchased (most from places or depths I don’t want her diving at). Shells were some that we collected from Sanibel Island years ago. My daughter was giggly about it the whole time and after a few iterations here are the results. We do have a couple more teeth coming that will finish it off. For the big Meg, I drilled a hole in a piece of Colorado petrified wood that we collected together and put in the Meg holder. That post is still setting so can’t use just yet, but posted a picture of it without the tooth in it. -
Hi All! First time posting after my young daughter and I tried hunting for shark teeth (and other fossils) for the first time - on the Potomac near Montross, VA. We'd be grateful for any help.

Sharing my quest to find 1...just 1 decent Meg. I found a spot in the peace river, lots of gravel and so peaceful area. Even finding anything still makes for great day. So my very first shovel I pull out that Mako in the first picture! Wow so excited I was! Broken up root but that is OK, its so cool. So I come back to this spot and search...and search about a dozen times usually 3-4 hours each time. The first picture is all the Mako/Meg teeth pieces I found during all these trips. Now, like I said, the peaceful time I spend, eating, relaxing watching the fish jump, occasional alligator staring at me makes it all worth while. But, frustration sets in..Why I can not just fine 1 nice Meg? Even a small one that is not all broken would be nice! Well yesterday I had this amazing idea, "Hey I know, I will move down a few hundred feet try there!" The second picture is the result of about 2 hours digging!! The Mako (the bigger of the 2 is 2.25 inches for reference) 5 almost perfect shark teeth for my collection! Megs are under 2" but I do not care they are sweet! Hmm..wonder whats down a little further? Moral of the story, Keep digging, enjoy yourself and the thrill of the hunt. You never know what today may bring!
