John You surely have the touch and in your hands, Hasegawa kits reach new levels.

Thanks Mike so greatly appreciated. Today we have a late afternoon appointment wife Diane's cardiologist and I'm sure he will also give her a good checkup after lasts night ER visit.

Kev Got ya - just be safe as hurricanes need our upmost respect. and take care.

Mark Sorry to read it's on the SOD as there were so many issues with the printing, the program itself and accuracy. Hoping this all gets straightened out not to far down the road and the GBKF Recovery Vehicle project will be back on the bench. Just so much incredible work has gone into the build, and she just has to be finished.

PW X4 Fantastic progress and both the Sherman and the addons look brilliant.

John Looking so good and you're putting me to shame at making any progress.

Scott Read instructions - that's only for rookies! But maybe if I did, I might avoid a lot of the pitfalls I always seem to find.

Mighty nice customer service. Surely wish every company was that good.

Paul Some nice additions to the stash.

Paul Good question and things like that must drive armor builders up the wall. But still nice to have all the options.

Hubert, not a bad idea. I'm just learning to use 3D printed parts and AM details. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to make the party in 20 years' time, as I'm going to be 77 in November. f

Thanks guys so much. I'm starting to feel a lot better as the medication appears to be working wonders. Unfortunately, my wife fell in the bedroom last night and we were so lucky after our trip to the ER and a CT scan, nothing was broken and just a bit sore. We need to be more vigil and careful, take our time and avoid situations where falls can occur.

Scott Hang in there as your schedule for the procedure and the recovery period will open up a world of being pain free and allowing you to live a normal life again. We're riding with you all the way.

Maru, Thank you for posting all the photographs and what an amazing hobby shop.

Ernie WOW! Congratulations of trading for a Stolp Starduster Too. I've always been a huge fan of the EAA and Homebuilt airplanes as a GA pilot for many decades. The Starduster Too has always been at the top of my list of favorite homebuilt aircraft and shares the spot in my heart with the Thorp T-18. Hoping you keep a build log for us to follow as you finish the Starduster Too and roll her out on the flight line. At one time when I was first married, I had the crazy idea of building a Throp T-18, bought the plans but never went any further, as we lived in a town house for a good number of years in the early days. Still can't believe my wife actually let me buy the plans and a few years later, I bought my own plane, a Piper Colt. Enjoy the journey and I'll be eagerly waiting for updates and following your journey.

Mark I'm right with Martin, looking mighty good.

Carl Nice start on the Sheridan and the number of parts for the assemblies is incredible. I'm willing to bet, half the battle is not losing a few of those small parts to the carpet monster.

Chris Looking good as the pre-shading works so well and can't wait to see the 109 with the weathering all done. Nice going on the counterbalances - has to be a record for working on a build and not knocking off such small parts. 🏆

Hubert Amazing for sure.

Martin Some mighty nice progress and what a touch. Can't wait to see where the build is going. Glad you found your reading glasses, so you can actually see what you are doing. If I couldn't find my glasses, I would have a hard time finding anything at all, let alone attempt to work at the bench, which surely be a disaster.

Carl Nice choice for sure on aa subject we don't see modeled that often. Nice work on the front office as Trumpeter really kept it clean, neat and simple.

Kev Nice start on your 109 ... the office is looking mighty good.

John Can't believe you're this far into the 109 already. The front office is looking so good and even the fuselage is glued up and together. A new meaning for: progress at the bench.

PW Holy Smokes - the rigging loops look incredible and I'm right with martin for sure.

Robe Enjoy and relax - we'll be waiting for your return to the bench and the next Cobra update.🚗
