I ran across a vid once (can no longer locate it) that showed a remarkable feature of the T-34: - In the rush into production there were understandably some less-then-perfect issues with the T-34 - One of which was a track pin that had a tendency to "shake" out of the link, and then throw the...

Nice vid. It's got that "happenin" professional quality of the Russian vids posted by USSR. The snap-shot style of progress shots in the beginning part of the vid were good.

That sure is some real nice work. It looks mighty good! Don't know what OEM was, but for my two bits the chrome finish on the glove-box button looks fine. You know, just the old "don't fix what ain't broke", is what I'm saying. But me? I don't know nothing.

Excellent! Plain priceless.

"...time available is NOW-available"?

Looking good, real good! Those seats are fine, where did you find those?

Impressive equipment and protocols/procedures, really, for sure! If only solving the whole contagion problem was as easy as just "cleaning up". Wish that it was. The problem though is us, we give it to each other. The virus just hitchhikes, cleverly, from one of us to another. Without the...

Wow. THAT is a major "makeover"! How did you prep it (before painting): - Liquid stripper/rust remover? - Or Sandblast (but that wouldn't be advised INSIDE the cylinders would it?) - Then, primer + 2 coats?

Something as microscopically tiny, and seemingly insignificant, as a virus has the real ability to completely end human life. Or at least sure put a "dent" in our worldwide numbers. And here we have been believing that we are the most important living thing here on the planet. Believing we...

That block sure is pretty, It really is! Did you buy it like that, or is that paint job yours?

What a beautiful machine!! :drool:👍:drool:

Well, you've done good because you're one up on that friend now!

What made you start the work, worried they'd fall apart?

I will pray for you, Brother. Please pray for me. Amen

Hope you all are OK under this pandemic, USSR. Good luck to those troops. It would be an interesting world if every Navy was only Rescue and Hospital ships, instead of Carriers and Subs. It sure would, you know?

So, for that M54A2 project, you're saying that lunch will be left-overs? :mrgreen:

Nice work, Slate! You must have been pretty confident (or maybe I'm just LACKING confidence sometimes): - I hate stopping in the middle of a project for fear of forgetting my focus and losing the momentum Was that lunch break because you felt "over the hump" already?!

Thanks for the pic, but now that looks like something with golden retriever in it. This particular dog had ALL lab features, but the color of the coat was the only thing that threw me (I had never seen anything like it before).

Fred is a fine canine specimen, sure enough! And funny that you mention Nova Scotia, have they got a special dog thing going on up there? The reason I ask: - I am born-and-raised in labrador retreiver country here around the Chesapeake Bay in the Mid-Atlantic - I thought I knew ALL the...

Your project looks great! And about that wrong size heat shrink: - Almost EVERY project takes a "sucker punch" of some kind somewhere in the details, no big deal, never sweat it. Just write it off as the cost of doing business do-it-yourself style. You are doing something, THAT'S what counts...
