Hello! The name's Keith from Pennsylvania. I've loved all things prehistoric since I was a small child. Dinosaurs and fossils of all kinds. I still scavenge when camping or at the beach and almost never come home empty handed.

Hi! I am 53 years old and I have been interested I prehestoric animals since I was a kid. My interest in collecting fossils started when I visited a friend at his summerhouse on the island of Gotland in the Baltic sea at the age of 11. My suitcase was very heavy when I got home that summer. When I became a teen there was a lot of other tings that was interesting and I almost forgot about how interesting fossils really are. In later years I have come back to Gotland and the fascination for fossils suddenly came back. I still have my collection of trilobites, brachiopods and other fossils since childhood and now new ones as well. I am now very curious to start to remove some matrix and take my newfound hobby to the next level. Thanks for having me!

Hey Folks, My five year old son found this 10lbs slab with shells embedded in it. There are more on the sides. I would say that each shell is about 3 inches long. What is the best way to clean this up? Should I buy a dremel? E & B
