When kids hair cuts got up to $.25. Dad bought a set of clippers. We had crew cuts for quite a while after that.

I had an old 64 ford tractor. After drying out the points for the 10th or more times one New England winter I swapped to an electronic ignition module. It was a 6 volt unit but wouldn't start the tractor while cranking. The voltage drop was too much for it to fire. I would have to crank for a...

I believe SWA also had one of those pilots that can carry onboard, discharge a round through the floor before.

I forget the name but there is an outfit in Utah that sells 20 gallon jugs for gasoline. They also have pumps that work on batteries and another tha works with 12v/110v with a power block. The 12 volt works great, about 6 gal or more per minute. The jugs are stacakable and we just put 3 of them...
