asmurff Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 I've been doing spring cleaning, today I was dusting some of the higher selves in our sunroom and came across a couple of old mementos: a 30mm Dummy Round given to me by the Fairchild Aircraft people when I was part of the Air Force personal (ground crews and munitions/loaders) who worked with the Fairchild team who took the A-10 Warthogs around NATO to show them off in the late 70s. So I mounted it to the rear corner of my reloading table. I also pull the steel Skull shifter knob from my S10 off that same shelf, after enlarging the hole where it fitted to the shifter, I mounted it onto the pull lever on my Lee Pro 1000 reloader.
Longitude Zero Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 It is always amazing to be looking for one item and find another long lost item instead of, or in addition to your original search.
George Wood Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 Amazing what you will find when you are not looking!
asmurff Posted March 26, 2011 Author Report Posted March 26, 2011 Oh I knew they were up there I had just never found a use for them. Recently I had been working on my reloading table and had added a second reloader. When I moved the skull to dust under it I knew exactly what I was going to do with it. Now enlarging the hole on it took awhile but it fit well afterwards. The 30mm round looks a bit out of place but what the hell.
techmike Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 Great looking reloading bench Mr Smurf! I like the skull :thumb:
FS2KSTD Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Nice touch with the 30 Mike Mike displayed asmurff! "Bring on the spall!" :thumb:
asmurff Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Posted March 27, 2011 I may have to get this to put on the other reloader.
rodent.22 Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 that executive problem solver would look good on the other loader.... ;D
