Might have to add one to the small stash if the mojo holds.........one of my first ever builds was a Stug so i have a bit of a soft spot for them  |

Thank you Ian! Boots, Tamiya then ?  This is a rough ride if you decide to go for the Bose version, however once the build is done I'll write down the caracteristics. Still a couple of grabhandles to make from copper wire and then it's tracktime.   The figure fits like a glove, I love it!!! 
Here we go again...first the positive news. Tomorrow I go to the hospital for a checkup of the collarbone. I think it's healing slowly. The not so positive news then, my shoulder/arm nerves are damaged or blocked since the accident. My arm is tingling from the shoulder to my fingers and it feels like it's slowly getting worse. I hope they can help me getting my arm back in good condition. The doc thinks I have a thoracic outlet syndrome. |

Good luck at the hospital. Are you sure you are not over doing it and just making your arm worst?
Rest up if you need to.

Hi guys thank you for the kind replies. The collarbone is still not healed enough but it's not painful. The arm/shoulder nerves will be EMG tested to figure out where exactly the damage is done. I've decided to gear up and see another specialist for a second opinion.
Meanwhile I'm gluing the tracks together. I also went to work today after 3 long months.

Glad your not in so much discomfort Guy. First day back to work after three months! Rather you than me with that! Looking forward to seeing the tracks in place.

Thank you guys! One track run done. The minor sag between returnrollers 1 and 2 was centered (no on pic). The deflector was a field modification. It needs one more weld seam.  |
