Needed a break and something simple to build. I've had this in the stash since 2008 and saw a GB on another site where this one fits right in. In a nine hour day I was able to get it this far by building sub-assemblies while the glue cured on others. The fit has been great and I was able to keep it moving right along all day. Dang it's cold. Enough is enough Mr.Gore Cheers all Tony lee

One appeared only briefly before our own planes trashed it but it was sweet while it lasted Ian. I think you'll enjoy building it Anthony. Tony lee

Looks like the perfect winter-filler project Tony. Looking forward to seeing you bring this one to life...and hopefully be able to paint it not too far into the future!

They talk like it will be the end of the month or first of March before we even get close to near normal Bill. Right at 50f is normal for this time of year here and today we made it to 29f, calling for snow and freezing rain overnight. Pretty good day was had anyway at the bench: The fit is still A-1 Hope you folks are havin a good one. Tony lee

Wait a minute! Is it really a SPG?!?!? Never mind... happy to see you build it cause I ALWAYS wanted this kit. Does it comes with aluminum barrel too?
Looking great!!!

LOL! I know... it is just so different from your usual SPG builds. Bet you are excited about this build... I have added it to my wish list and a model show is coming up in a month. Thanks buddy!

Too bad I can't send you some of our weather Tony, we hit 70F (yes, 70!, in FEBRUARY!) today...your T19 looks like the perfect 'look busy' distraction for Catherine's 'honey-do' impulses.

I made a mistake by passing by the wife on the way to the coffee pot and now she has me moving furniture so she can clean behind and underneath it. Still able to make some progress but not much. Thanks for hanging around the shop folks Tony lee

Thanks for hanging around the shop folks Tony lee You should know by now Tony to have all the necessary supplies located at the bench or in the bunker in advance...these kinds of chance encounters put a serious delay in your production schedule!
