At the least, you can look out at remarkable scenery! And then there's the Four Seasons Bar.

Good Afternoon,
Now that the Holidays are passed and I've done all the getting better that this round of Treatments will allow. Time to finally do some tank work. Started with removing the turret and measuring the ATAK zimm off against the early turret and it should look work well. I had ordered the zimm for the early HL and happily it was still available. Some light sanding and maybe turret disassembly to get the ATAK on the turret front on correctly to follow next. My cement for this application has dried out so a drive into town is on the agenda. It is good to be back.
regards,
Painless

I'm so happy you're back and I hope the treatments will help you feel better as well as recover as best you can. Great to see your project come back to life. I'm on a mission to find an early KT turret one day. Keep it up sir. I hope the best for you.

I’m back at work now from Xmas break and if I had hung around home much longer, I would also need treatment
For a nasty head injury the Mrs would’ve inflicted on me
Glad your back in the groove again

Good Morning
Slogging away at work but looking longingly at my KT turret on the counter next to me. Looking forward to some sanding this afternoon
Thanks for the Greetings, gentlemen. Sure is good to feel like a part of things again.
