So, I'm out at a customers place, looking to see whats going into the trash. Needless to say, no Wayne 60, YET. But this little drum hopped into the cab of the truck with me.

Embossed on the bottom is 19 15 34. Does anybody know what this means? I know that its old, but I doubt that the number is the date of manufacture. Any Ideas?

Those are M-60 linked belts..... Sorry... They are blanks. But they work good in the M-14 as noisemakers..... The skunk gun is next to the bed......

Thunder,

If I didn't know better, I would swear that you had been in my storage shed! My wheeled grease drum is EXACTLY like yours....right down to the same rusty finish, wooden handle and missing hose! It's one of those things I hope to restore when I retire. For now it's just in my way!

Actually Jim. The one on wheels belongs to the good people at Gas pump Heaven. I couldn't talk Andy out of it. I saw another, just like it, at an old bulk plant, but I couldnt get a price for it. So, it looks like I'll be building one out of some parts that I've got laying around here. I'd like to find a little gear pump, like the one in the pic. But all I've got right now is the two in the second pic. So like Jack asked "How dirty do I want to get?"

OK.... So, I dismantled the little Smithway pump. Stripped it, primed it, painted it, and reassembled it with new bolts. The can, was washed down, and painted.



I've got a few NOS decals, Thank you Dick Bennett, one of which, will be put on the drum. Next project.... The cart....
