    M3 Halftrack Restoration

    That would be it Z, plus thats our halftrack. Where did you get that picture from? I know when that was taken but didn't know you had been up to the museum.

    M3 Halftrack Restoration

    Machine gun bipod. There is a fixture that mounts to the back of that door the bipod hangs on when not in use. I'll get a picture of it tomorrow morning of the one on the museum's M3A1 halftrack.

    M4A1E8 Turret Install + SS member thanks

    Today out at the museum we had a M4A1E8 Sherman that needed the turret re-installed on it as it had been removed for restoration needs. Had to call in some SS assistance involving Scott's (tie6044) M816 wrecker. We only had 1 wrecker available and deemed it too dangerous to try the lift solo...

    M60A3 crushing a van

    M60A3 crushing a van

    Fort Snelling Military Museum. Some of the artifacts are going to other museums but about 90% of it is scheduled to go to DRMO. Anyone wanting to see about getting any of the unspoken for pieces need to contact the Center of Military History as they own all of the pieces.

    winter rediness

    Do yourself a favor and run straight diesel during the cold months. That will help you the most. Does your truck have either assist or a manifold heater?

    Master cylinder removal tips

    Most deuces have only 3 holding the MC in for just the very reason of it being a bitch to reach. Not right per the book but it does work. Have not heard of any breaking off due to only 3 bolts either.

    Nah, just tie a rope to his undies and throw him out one of the big doors on the 2nd floor. Guaranteed to either split or rip.....what it splits or rips I'll let your minds go whereever you want it to go.

    Learn First Aid

    FYI for what its worth the new CPR guidelines use the following set: Circulation - 30 chest compressions Airway - head tilt to open airway Breaths - 2 breaths then repeat Think CAB for the procedure. Basically they have found that you have enough oxygen in the blood to go straight to chest...
