Jock Auld Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Guys, This was also with the scrap. You can see where the liner holes are still visible. The damage to the enamel is where someone tossed it in the scrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trooper_D Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Well if swords can be turned into ploughshares, why not? Have you come across many of these, Jock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spasm Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Seems like it was done on a large scale too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trooper_D Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) Fascinating film, Spasm. Interesting that, as early as 1946, there was such a pressing (sorry!) need that it was worth creating machine tools specifically to convert helmets into cullenders.

peter monahan Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Mind, putting the handles on would make it easiert to re-fit a chin strap if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
