After all the talk about where Rich hails from , what's happening Bob ?
We need to know.

Well John made a start on the secondary battery. Using the extra Trumpeter metal barrels. To be fair they do make a difference.
Added the PE on the front, had some issues with doing a gentle bend in it as it was a little thick but got there. Not 100% happy, bit sloppy again with the CA.
Hopefully I can build this better than previous builds. My fault for only really building StuG's and getting stuck as a on trick pony!. Trying to take my time instead of rushing and making stupid mistakes, things like sanding like a maniac and not leaving stuff to set properly.
We will see folks
I found that by rolling a toothpick over small parts can put a slight curve on it.

Worry not Bob, think your conversation to this scale and type is to be admired. Looks neat work on those guns
