    Why is a Deuce and 1/2 called this ?

    Officially, the deuce-and-a-half must be able to carry 5,000 pounds cross country and up a slope of a specified angle and height, and twice that weight on paved roads. 5,000 pounds is 2.5 short tons. WWII trucks got the name first and it's stuck around through the M35 series.

    It's loaded in the van for transport, along with a field sink for Cabell. The plan is to leave Columbia at 0-dark-thirty and be there before 10, then leave in the early afternoon to be home before dark.

    Decimal drill size chart.

    It was some dirt rubbed onto the plate when the South Bend Lathe came out. I had washed most of it off but some was stubborn. The three phase motor on that lathe weighs more than I do, by a good margin. I try washing it again and rescan.

    It's a metal plate, with sharp edges, not easy to mail. it measures 9 3/8 inches (23.9 cm) tall, and 5 3/4 inches (14.6 cm) wide. Send me your e-mail address and I will send you the full sized scan.

    Decimal drill size chart.

    The original scan is 3MB, when uploading it to the site, it dropped to 600K, that's why it's fuzzy! The upload process got rid of five of every six pixels. I may try uploading it again as a horizontal image to see if it is any better.

    DENTON NC Buy/Sell Thread 2022

    Coleman's used to have them, but the only ones I see on evil-bay are $500 plus shipping. Want this one for $250? If I don't get there, I'll send by Adam and in any case I'll try to have it near Cabell's MKT so it can be found easily.
