Hope things went well for your daughter. If not, remind her that things may not work out this time, but those bigger girls have already peaked, whereas she can add size to her game later and keep going upwards.

G'day mate!...........they still havent named the team, but unless there is a series of tragic accidents, too small-too young. thats life in sporting reality.
Your right though in that later??? who knows. She will have the height at some point and still be thin(thanks Daddy for the figure) but if she gets serious about taking the shot, she can work to put on the physic required.
The Sturmtiger however, poor thing is the only project I have no answer for to recover this idler failure.
Not out in the bin yet, but not on the bench charging forward either
A year ago almost to the day and a small package arrived from my Old Country.
A very generous tanker has sent me a tensioner unit that should replace the broken old one that stopped this project dead cold back then.
Now I need to figure out how it fits & find time to resurrect the old Sturm from its lamenting hidey-hole.
I have been in a bit of a life rut for a while now and am/was teetering on the point of giving the hobby up.
But gestures like this and others make me realise there's more to being in this hobby and specifically this gathering place than just plastic tank models.
Thanks Mr John Glover, you've kicked me back into gear
My pleasure Mr. Bix. We cant afford to loose your talent and your builds are always interesting, especially your saved from the scrap heap builds. John.

Definitely don't give up. You can't give up until you see the PZ3 tracks running that you gifted to me for my T26 tank. And if it keeps you in the hobby, I'll never finish the project... I'd do that just for you, bud...
