Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

With all the variations of grenades coming out of China, I was confused when I got a grenade head without screw holes for holding the head to a stick. Jerry Price provided me with some old Japanese drawings and found out what the head was used for. I duplicated the parts to complete the grenade that was thrown with a sling. The head was glued to the wooden plug and the groove in the base of the grenade and under the wire bale on the wooden plug was for attaching a wrap of string to hold on a waterproof protective cloth. The last pic is the of the grenade with the waterproof cloth wrap.
