US Army 10 Cap Blasting Machine

[Rescue190]

I picked up a 10 cap blasting machine that has been there and back a couple too many times. I do not see these around much in my area. Should display well with combat engineers items. I think the chain holding the key has been messed with. It should attach to a collar on the key.

What a ripper John, fun thing to play with I imagine.

That is super fun! That will look awesome next to combat engineer things!

Our gubberment frowns on blowing things up, I am not sure why. We used to be able to go buy a stick of TNT at the hardware store when I was a young child. We used it to blow stumps and beaver dams up northern MN. I am going to test it with a volt meter though.

Good find. Here some were used post war in the coal mines. To bad you do not have the carry strap. Rich A. in Pa.

Easy way to test it is to tell the wife to grab each of the little knobs while
you give it a spin. I'm sure she'll tell you if it produces some current.

I remember watching my step dad blow up tree stumps when I was younger.

My wife would be onto my plan too quick.

All I would like to see is a video of whoever tries it!

Cool piece! Like it!
