    which would you choose

    Blake's Deuce Mods

    I agree the camera is a great idea. I think it would be useful in a parade as well.

    What tracked armor options do I have these day?

    There was a Sherman on E-Pay several months ago. It was a recent restoration with twin Detroit Diesels. Don't remember the exact price but it was expensive. I agree with other posts here that a half track would be the way to go........easier to get in and out of that a tank.

    Found out torque wrench is not accurate *after* rear main seal job

    Rusty, I agree. Most of my torque wrenches are Craftsman, I even have a couple of the old pointer style Craftsman torque wrenches. But the biggest torque wrench I have only goes to 150 ft lbs., and I need to go to 157 lbs. to re torque the head nuts. Being a new retiree I just didn't have the...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Rusty. I don't know how many times I've missed one of these wrenches on E-Pay, Craigslist and elsewhere. Then a couple weeks ago I'm doing my usual weekly search, and bingo, here's an unspoken for Snap-on M 4276A wrench. Didn't even bother to make a bid, I hit the "BUY NOW" button ASAP. Cost me...

    2016 Olympic Flight Museum Air Show - 18-19 June

    Sounds similar to the Chino Air Show in So Cal. Chino airport has an endangered Burrowing Owl so a large part of the ramp infield is now closed off, and the MV folks are making do with a smaller area. I noticed several owls were poking their heads up when the air museums Sherman tank rolled by...

    Found out torque wrench is not accurate *after* rear main seal job

    Exactly, I worked for Boeing at the Douglas Aircraft Facility in Long Beach California, and the tool crib attendants were required to check calibration certs on tools when they were checked in and out. When we merged with Boeing we went to ATD (automated tool dispensers) the machines kept track...
