That's a nice set-up. Any chance you can take a pic of those two elements to show us where they are in the rig, and how they got them placed in there? I know it might be a PIA, but sometimes we're just dying to check stuff out, you know!?

What was the service-body used for, ordnance? Vehicle maintenance?

Hey, that paint job looks terrific; nice work. I really like the service-body; is it original GI?

Cheers back at ya, Skull Crusher. Always love hearing from you. And hope everything is fine with you and your lovely lady-friend! That's not an everyday-kind of bed you got there for the Kraz (which is looking completely awesome, by the way). It looks like it was designed for some specific...

It sounds like some of these medical devices need a WHOLE lot more time in Research-and-Development before being put out in the field. I mean yikes. :3dAngus:

That's nice looking bead on that weld. But what I like best is your outdoor "shop". It's like a stage set from John Ford's The Searchers. That's a great backyard you got there. :beer:

That paint job looks great. :beer:

Sometimes you can get a pretty straight cutting line around a cylinder by using a rubber band as a guide. In your case it would have to be a Big A** rubber band.

The Brooklyn Bridge is riveted construction I believe, and the Empire State Building, too. They seem to be holding up OK. I mean a B-25 flew into the one, and King Kong even played on it, and it's still standing.

I learn something new every day: - and this, the CA-1 and Pan, is all brand new to me. Thank you for sharing all of this; very cool.

As shovels go, that is one very solid looking shovel. I don't want to dig too many holes anymore, but if I did that's the tool I'd want to have for the job. iI's a nice item, for sure.

Well, I sure got THAT one wrong; I should have remembered to look it up first in the TM. :doh:

No, I believe that's Welsh, and not Official Redneck. The man must have ancestors from the British Isles, and maybe just slipped into the old tongue. That right, CUCVLOVER?

That Goat is shaping up fine, isn't it; real nice! That black shovel looks in the picture like is't forged, and all one piece (handle and all), which would make that sucker nearly indestructible; is that so?

No kidding. You restored everything so perfectly that it's like traveling back in time or something. Those are all real nice.

Northern Utah; is that mountain country? Got any pictures, red? You know, maybe?

As long as safety isn't compromised: - Using one thing that is designed for something else... Isn't always a bad idea. We did that all the time in the Seabees. The Plumbers and Electricians borrowed ideas from the Carpenters (BU's), vice versa and et cetera.

Hey, NOW you're talking; great stuff! Thanks a million. What's the story on the mini-dozer and (i'm guessing) the pan behind it? I've never seen either one before. WWII European theater?

This guy Mike Holt is great. I like his explanations. Interesting that he says "Lightning? We don't understand it". I'm not totally convinced that we totally understand electricity either. But we use it anyhow (and it seems to work for us anyway).
