I'm surprised the Gorilla Glue went bad on you, I've never had that happen. Interesting.
Nice fix on that rear area. Way to go!

Nice progress Bob - keep it moving! 
The spare track rack on the front has bothered me, my feable attempt didn't measure up and as luck would have it, Spruebros restocked the exterior set from Eduard.
Someone tell me when Eduard started doing their PE in brass and not that plated stuff they use to do! I like it a lot better now I can solder it.
How's that for a bead line?
I spend half the day trying to figure out exactly what was stowed in these racks, then I found it. Grousers, D48082 grousers to be exact, as well as the rubber blocks for the tracks. Just so happens that someone has them at Shapeway.

Still have a problem staying in the garage, the space heaters just ain't doing the job and I can't find any wall mount gas heaters in stock anywhere. Figure by the time I order one it's going to be warm again before it shows up.

Nice soldering Bob 
I'm guessing you noticed the grousers are in 1/32 scale ?
Cheers, Christian B)

Need some heat in the garage "UT"! Baby it's cold out there.
Like Mike said, it'll be in the 60-70s next week, guess I'll wait to fix the heat when it's back in season.

Mike the front box will be open, just like in the movie. The top one is hard to tell so I'm closing it. From what I can tell there are track pads, grousers and the guide horns stowed in those boxes. I can do the track pads and horns easily from spare track links. The grousers is another story.

Well I'll have the AC running before the heat gets fix, nice day today, overcast but nice temps, nice enough not to worry about the heat not working.
Not exciting but progress. A shot of Friuls.
Someone remind me not to get two part friuls again. :facepalm
