Nice looking workshop Gerrit, though it does seem a little high in the house for completing a 150kg Tiger :wink: :wink:

Hey Gerrit

Ya looks like you have a good place to start the build. I'm in the middle of turning a room in my basement into a workshop now, Waiting for Armortek to say my Tiger 1 kit is on it's way. Is your model already in the mail? i wonder when they first started shipping out. I'm told mine should be ready for shipping in late March to early April. ""I'm Lousing My Mind""

Well you will have to upload pictures of the boxes when they get there, and cant wait to more pics of your build.

Hi Gerrit.

I like the telephone on the shelf! . . . is that so the kitchen can let you know when your meals are ready when you get carried away and forget the time??? :lol:

Only kidding looks like you are ship shape and ready to go.
