    Tires for the Karcher USMC Field Kitchen Trailer?

    Everything I'm seeing says you do excellent work on the painting front; looks real good.

    Distracted driving

    There's the answer: - Pain and Suffering, gone. - War and Hatred, gone. - Sorrow and Anxiety, gone. - Fear and Loathing, gone. - Hope and Faith, unnecessary; gone. But don't hold your breath and expect that knowing the answer will ever mean it becomes a popular idea.

    Removing, rebuilding, reinstalling Hydraulic Head

    It's not written in any particular manual, but in the whole wide world I believe the record shows that there is only one hole that really matters...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    That's no joke that it would have been "nasty". I remember our NBC training way back in the day, with the full-coverage chlorinated rubber suits. Our readiness on paper undoubtedly looked real good to the Pentagon Brass and all the appropriate Congressional Committees. But the truth was we...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    How did you manage to bend the flange (to fit the "tunnel" edge), without breaking the paint film on the flange? Was that any problem at all?

    Working On The M561 Gama Goat

    That's very cool. Does the noise of the quad-copter sound as loud down on the ground, as it does in the video?

    Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

    That's a special formation there. Do you know what was the occasion?

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Looks all good to me; nice work. Those seats are a nice custom feature.

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    Maybe I'm only imagining this, USSR, but it seems like the ordnance on the T-15 is literally being "kept under wraps": - wondering if this is deliberate - or just Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) to store the weapons, when not active, under cover. Is there something proprietary there on a...

    Building a Tank??

    That's an interesting idea. Colorado has had it's big mining days also (likely been a while, but Silverton comes to mind).

    Whosoever of ye raises me that same white whale, he shall have this gold dubloon, my boys!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Is it OK to tell us the brand name?

    Building a Tank??

    You're right undoubtedly, but tracked machines have their own draw that overrides the intent to keep things "simple". Can't explain it entirely, but armor is its own excuse; just because it's armor.

    Red's deuce/camper project

    Sometimes I feel dread before starting a new project, just because of the anticipation of how wrong it can all go. No matter how hard you try to get something right, it often seems like the gods are out to get you. You just got to laugh.

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    I'll tell you what, that is a real nice looking machine: But I guess, for the record, the official classification would be "sinker' then, and not "swimmer"! :-)

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    That install job is looking real clean; nice. I lost track of the reason for the relocation of the vent off of the axle; what was that?

    M47 Dump Project Is Home

    How did you get that cab off the chassis: - Do you have a wrecker in your toy box!?

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    If I remember right, USSR posted a similar vehicle a while back that he did identify as amphibious. But I believe this is another vehicle altogether. The engine-forward concept sounds innovative.

    Photos of any killer cars will be greatly appreciated (you know, just a little drifting).
