Some of the welding is bad enough for it to be a Unipower.....

A lot of Red White Blue roundels were modified locally by painting out the red dot with White, but this was a local expediency. The colours should have been Light Blue and Dark Blue but as is so often the case with Military markings , what should have happened, didn't always happen. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:RAF_Far_East_Command_roundel.svg If you read the RAF's official reason the text says Blue and white was used but their illustration is of Light Blue/ Dark Blue Roundel http://www.raf.mod.uk/history/theroyalairforceroundel.cfm!

It is the reason the Far East Command of the RAF used Dark Blue and Light Blue Roundel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Air_Force_roundels

It is the reason the Far East Command / South East Asia Command of the RAF used Dark Blue/ Light Blue Roundel.

Or use a smaller torque wrench with a torque multiplier.....

But of Mustang stuff here http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?10187-26th-October-1940&highlight=mustang

I was gonna say that but I thought I was being picky....

Maybe, but Steve guest gave me some studs when two of my Antar studs sheared, they were 1" , I thought he said they were constructor, but He did have a Contractor for a while.....

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the reactors were removed in service because operators were exceeding recommended loading, that they were so increasing Militant front Axle loadings that the power steering was failing on a regular basis.

The Chassis was completely overloaded as it was, I cannot see there was any spare capacity to fit anything else. The Mk3 definitely had the Donaldson reactor and my June 1970 manual does not mention the Donaldson reactor by name. I assume that the Back actor it refers to is the Donaldon reactor, since it would make sense to say in a manual that a device that was known was on the way would be covered by a later amendment and that it would be made clear that instructions would be issued. What I am trying to say is the Donaldson was fitted and is not referred to in the manual unless it is by reference to the Back actor. It would be sensible to assume that the Donaldson Reactor would have a reference in the manual, and the only reference can be to the back actor to be covered by a later addition.

They were definitely fitted to some Mk3 Millys but I can't say for certain that they either all had the reactor fitted or kept them for all their service life.

Also called Donaldson reactor, there has been a thread on here about them.

Antar and 30T constructor are 1" but I must say I thought Milly's were 7/8". Just saying what the manual says, and as we know manuals are not always reliable....

A k3 Militant should have 1" wheel studs according to the user manual.

He who has the biggest tool wins......

It is a VB 36 Bowl master and can easily handle this size wood.....

Oh yes and Wife to pour my beer and wipe my RRRR's

Beer Beer Beer Beer Beer, Bog Roll Beer Beer Beer

Actually as it turned out I spent the morning clearing a fallen Ash tree and bringing it home for my wife to turn on her wood lathe.

I am told its another see through number.......

Going to the bookies to place a bet on how long it lasts.........

I just wish to point out that St George's flag was not the Flag of England but rather historically is the flag of the Kingdom of England. The Kingdom of England was, from 927 to 1707, a sovereign state to the northwest of continental Europe. At its height, the Kingdom of England spanned the southern two-thirds of the island of Great Britain (including both modern-day England and Wales) and several smaller outlying islands; what today comprises the legal jurisdiction of England and Wales. So for those who feel proud to be English and see the St Georges flag as England's Flag, remember until 1959 it was Wales' Flag also so within the Union Flag, The red Cross on a white background was both the Flag for England and also the Flag for Wales....... So if you think the Red Cross represents you as the English nation, remember it has been representative of the Welsh Nation also....

In Bulgaria, they also celebrate St Georges day but Roast Lamb is the tradition there! (and there, St Georges day is the 6th of May, where he is their Patron Saint for Shepherds)
