Hi oldtanker
we used to get those darned round de-hydrated veal paddies too--we called them Pucks.
My stomach has still not recovered from them or those etherized eggs--after burps were ether flavored--sheesh.
Memories.

LOL, yea I'll never forget the eggs coming out of Mermite cans. Damned things were green.....and they didn't have the courtesy to give us green ham to go with it!

AS far as the pads go tank pads are thicker, shaped different and the stud is not centered. Kinda like this _l__ there the PC pads were like this _l_. I think the PC pads would work much better on Cat tracks.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
