[Björn Johansson]

Thank you all for nice comments .

It has been a terrible month over here ,so no work on the Stug

Our little grand kid a boy just over 3 years old , healthy and full off energy all off a sudden got sick
4 days before Christmas. They went on and off for a couple off days ,to test at the local hospital.
But it just went worse for every day, Christmas eve he was hospitalized at Malmö something with the liver
wasn´t as it should.
But it continue to got worse and the day before New Years eve he and my daughter had
to go by ambulance flight to Stockholm. And after a couple off day´s they had to do a transplantion off the liver
mid week /last week.
Me and my wife has been on and off to Stockholm this last weeks ,and we´r totaly destroyed ,so many thoughts/tears
the head was spinning.
So it will be some time before I can do any real work on the Stug again .

All the best regards from Björn

[Brian Ostlind]

Scary, I hope he has a strong recovery.

[Roy Beukeveld]

Family is the most important thing, lets hope for a fast and full recovery.

[Björn Johansson]

Thank you all !
We finaly had some good news last weekend , with small step day by day
the little boy seems to get better and more full off life again . We are so grateful !


After some time with no inspiration , it come back a bit today
did some small things , drill and tap 2/56 for my air intake "Stannard copy"

[Björn Johansson]

Still one step forward and two back with the recovery off our little grandkid

So inspiration has not flowed , thats for sure . not much to report about.

But finaly got the lower hinges for the Schurtzen in place , also did a mod like my roof to front panel over the engines.

Also try to "weld" for the first time with Milly Put , no safety net . Should have practise more before go to action

Can only be better from here I hope

[Robert Tanzer]

Looks great Björn.
I can see that the welding line tool came into use.
The weld lines looks nice.

Robert

[Björn Johansson]

Thank you Robert !
Some small first try out with the option pack and where the heck all should go
Laban my cat is not impressed

Only way I could find place for two speakers, its sure costly to be short and low

[Björn Johansson]

Not much, but try to get the "welding job done"

This was something I was not supposed to do , but change my mind the other day .
So next step is those 6 weld on the rims , crazy shouldn´t do

[Björn Johansson]

Not much news mostly welding and there is a lot.

Ready with the mod/ welding off the wheels and upper hull /roof

continue in this way now

[Björn Johansson]
