    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Yeah, I turned around and he was sitting on the top step of that ladder. He's good about using the ladder to get in the bed of the truck too if I'm working on something back there.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Nah, it is "dead" dirt though. I get it from the cemetery, folks are just dying to get it! Lots of folks are superstitious so there is lots of it for free.

    I had to have help to check the fluid levels. So I could go get dirt today at work.

    Fan always spins, not the shutterstat?

    I have a 923A2 with the 8.3L, mine doesn't turn either when not engaged. With the engine off it very free spins very well.

    2 inch foam from Hobby Lobby. It doesn't feel very stiff in your hands, but it does sit stiffer than expected. So it fits the bill very well.

    More convoy pics. We had a hiccup on the convoy with a M37 getting a flat tire. With half the convoy stopping to help I don't think a Nascar pit crew could have changed it faster!

    I'm sure, we're shooting the .50 cal at a 400 yard range. We'd have to set the steels at 100 yards to shoot them with anything bigger. It would be a better question for Tactical Mike, but I think i recall him saying to bring rifles if you wanted to shoot them. I'd rather just shoot the steels...

    Clarification on small arms for steel targets: Pistol calibers, no 5.56mm Rifles that shoot pistol calibers are great. Shot guns welcome! Short ones are better for moving with them. I'll have firearms that shoot .40 S&W and 12 guage there if you want to shoot them. I'm still debating on...
