It may not be the best job or the coolest treasure, but I am proud as a peacock with my restoration of farm relics.

Yes, I can see what you are talking about. It does appear to have some work on it. Since RR is use to making copies, maybe he can chime in as to what he sees.

Here’s the fork that was made into a handle. Or, maybe, it was just bent that way. Let’s see if I can clean it up.

starting a new leiaomano.....thats a native war club that's lined with shark teeth. Strangely people are commissioning me to build them. This will be the 3rd one I've made. Getting close to mounting the teeth soon.- Thread starter

Eyeball finds from the hill after the rain. Anyone know what animal that tooth came from?

♫ Whether it storms or snows, whether the sun smiles on us
The day burning hot, or ice cold the night
Dusty are our faces, but joyful is our mind, yes, our mind
Our tank roars there in the storm's wind
Our tank roars there in the storm's wind
With thundering engines, as fast as the lightning
Against the enemies, sheltered in the tank
Ahead of our comrades, in battle we stand alone, we stand alone
So we push deep in the enemy's ranks
So we push deep in the enemy's ranks
If a hostile tank appears before us
Full throttle and run at the enemy (orders) will be given
With obstacles and mines the opponent holds us up
We laugh about it and don't drive upon them
And guns threaten before us, hidden in the yellow sand, yes, yellow sand
We search our way that none other found
We search our way that none other found
And if we're left behind by treacherous luck
And if we can't return back home anymore
If Death's bullet finds us, and calls our fate away, yes, fate away
Then our tank will become an honored grave!
Then our tank will become an honored grave! ♫
Panzerlied, a German tankers song, that pretty much everybody adapted for their own armies after the war. It is still used today by the German armored forces.

Hermann Goering, commander of the German airforce, once said that "when I saw those mustangs over Berlin, I knew the jig was up". Right he was.
Before the P-51 entered service, no fighter plane could escort the bombers all the way to their targets, making some wonder what was the point of an escort then. The problem was fuel. The P-51 solved that issue by adding a drop fuel tank (not pictured) that could hold a full tank of gas, and when empty could be released via cable. Tanks were also released during dog fights, as no one wants a large exposed fuel tank underneath them.
The Mustang proved to be a deadly fighter, and became one of the most iconic planes of WWII. It was loved by its crews, and some of them can be still seen today being flown by collectors... You have to have deep pockets though. One recently sold for over 4.5 Million!
