This is what I used several times in the Army, and it's a great can opener. Also read the interesting history of the name in the description. I bought 10 so I can keep one on my key chain, in my tool box, and in each car.

I use to throw the John Wayne bars and see what damage I could do to what ever they hit!!!
After using a P-38 for over 20 years....I 'grajatated' to better things to open cans with when I retired.....actually during Nam, we were using LRRP rations first.......dehydrated steak and spuds, etc etc"Bullshit and Brilliance Comes with Age and Experience"

Tasteless white sewer water....IMO!!! The only thing worth eating in Cs, IMO, was the Butter Beans and Ham. You knew you had an old meal though when you opened up the peaches and everything inside was black!!! Actually the sleeping bags were renamed by those that had to eat C-Rations.....renamed....Fart Sacks!!!!

by DaWizardI was perusing through my book of Service Bulletins again today and stumbled across something rather interesting.
Henry suggested that when the points seemed to be dirty or corroded or in some way in need of a cleaning, that a whetstone be used to burnish the pads. Well, I was thinking to myself, since most of the folk I know that own a Model A might not even know what a whetstone is,...-

by EarlyBertGood day all. I am new to the Model A lifestyle. I recently purchased a 1928 AR Tudor that was, for the most part, restored. One issue I am trying to address is the key cylinder in the passenger door handle is seized in the handle. I made a key for it & the tumblers are free but the plug won't turn.
I shot it with PB Blaster a couple times a day for many days, I soaked it overnight in Coca...-

by Jim MasonLooking at original tool bags I'm seeing the stitching is different from what a home sewing machine produces. It is more of a chain stich like on gunny sacks. I know I've heard the name of the stitch, but don't remember it.
The top stitches show the normal back side, the lower shows the normally visible stitch.
What is the name of the stitch?
What type of sewing machine...-

by Ray HortonIn addition to photos, keep a log of everything you do on your A: When and where you bought it; who you bought it from; what the mileage reading was; what you replace; what you repair; what you adjust; what you spend; date and mileage when you do service; where you buy a part. Everything. And always note the date and mileage of when you do it. I started doing this about 11 years ago. This is especially...

by PaulI thought I would start a new thread on collectables where you can post a picture and someone can tell you exactly what you have. Plus it is fun to see what other people have found.
I can Google and find information on the Canadian buffalo radiator badges. They were used for Park Passes for their National parks, but I cannot find anything on my Yellowstone Badge....You do not have permission to view this gallery.
