    Thanks to dingbat I now know I have a Japanese Tea Box. Looked on the internet and the first one that came up was for sale at $450. Expensive holder for a few hundred shotgun shells.

    Can anyone on this site read Japanese

    I have had this wooden box with a tin lining for years. It probably came from my uncle who lived in Japan for many years until he retired and moved back to the States. Any guesses what the writing on the label or the letters say? What it's original use was? is a sturdy constructed box and I...

    Curious to what type of steering this is and what is a replacement for it.

    Curious to what type of steering this is and what is a replacement for it.

    First thing to do is pinpoint the problem. Disconnect the cables from the motor and see if the wheel turn freely and the cables move smoothly. With the cables still disconnected move the motor both ways by hand. My first guess would be on a 40 year old boat that both the cables are...

    What do the ships' crews do doing the long layover. If Baltimore is anything like I remember it from 60 years ago the bar girls on State Street could make enough to retire by the time the channel is open.
