Merry Christmas from Semroc
 
Please see our Christmas message for what's new. Sorry for the delay this year.

The Starship Excalibur almost made it. Looks like it will be after Christmas, however. So much going on, we are lucky to have anything ready.

Chas Russell 12-17-2012 04:22 PM

Already placed my order. The crew of SEMROCs does so much for the hobby and your loyal SAM minions, that I have mixed feelings about taking advantage of your generous offers. But, I am having an adult beverage and dealing with it.
Thanks again and Happy Holidays to all !!!

Chas

A Fish Named Wallyum 12-17-2012 07:07 PM

I had to fight with it some but I was able to get my order in. Merry Christmas to me :)

Right Wing Wacko 12-18-2012 12:34 AM

Like Chas, I almost feel guilty taking such a deep discount. Of course that didn't stop me to much, and I put my order in also.

My build queue is now getting way to long! I may have to clean off my workbench and get to work.

Crocodile 12-18-2012 02:27 AM

Site is running Slow...and will not calculate the discount.

Crocodile 12-18-2012 02:37 AM

Semroc site working now...placed order --- maybe the site got over loaded with orders last night.... :)

Sorry! Been busy. I love being busy.

No worries Carl! You guys set the standard as far as I'm concerned. Glad to hear its going well!

Thanks for running this promotion again. I placed an order and I am really looking forward to the Nike-Tomahawk, it looks really cool. I also ordered parts to make it 24mm :)

PaulK 12-19-2012 09:43 PM

I looked at my order history, and I've received the Semroc Christmas gift 8 years in a row. It was 2005 when I joined the BAR ranks, and discovered Semroc. It's always nice to get that special white box this time of year. And I've just finished the scratch project that was largely received from last years gift!

Thank you!

Vanel 12-20-2012 07:10 PM

Received my order today - super fast as usual :D

My gratitude to Carl, Sheryl, and Bruce for all they do for our hobby - they really go above and beyond!

Merry Christmas to the crew at Semroc! I wish you great things in the coming year!

Gus 12-20-2012 08:51 PM

I expected my order to arrive today but it didn't.

Well, it's not like it's the end of the world.

Wait a minute.......

Oh crap!

It IS the end of the world. :(

Lessee, if you use the Day-Month-Year format, it's...

20-12-2012. :eek:


Done in by mathematics! :rolleyes:

Thanks to the SEMROC crew for a fabulous ongoing offer to their Adoring Public! ;) :D

kurth 12-20-2012 10:34 PM

I got my order today too! I got the Nike Tomahawk, which looks really cool, a Defender to replace my destroyed one, The Omega Payload section, as well as parts to build a Hawkeye clone.

I can not say enough good things about Semroc. Thanks again for all you do.

ghrocketman 12-21-2012 09:31 AM

Placed an order for a Nike Tomahawk as well. Should be a good build.

Chas Russell 12-21-2012 03:07 PM

Received my order yesterday. Will open it Tuesday as it is another SEMROC Christmas order that my wife didn't know she was giving to me. She is a Saint.

Merry Christmas to the wonderful folks at SEMROC and those on YORF.

My SEMROC order arrived today AND the world didn't end!

Now that's a good day. :)

I don't know why the world didn't end, but I credit Semroc with that, too! ;)

Had a good week. Spent about $35,027 on Semroc rockets and other stuff.

OK, it was $26.50 for Semroc rockets and about $35,000 for a couple of instruments from PerkinElmer for my chemistry department at the College. :chuckle: Hopefully everyone is happy!

I placed an order at 10:11 today; by 10:36, it was shipped already!
Nothing complicated. Just enough kits to eat up my 50% (and then some!) and get the new releases and a couple more (Orion and Baby Orion) to add to the pile.

Merry Christmas to me, thanks to SEMROC!

Hi Carl,

Thanks for the free model included in my last order. DER V 1.5 is now complete and ready for the rain to stop. If you make another bunch of SAM ID cards could you send me a new one. I recieved one in the mail with an order but it was for someone else. I sent it to his address in Wendover NV. The card was for SAM#453 and I'm SAM#454. My rockets don't always land where I want them to either. ;)

Used My SEMROC Xmas discount and that was awesome just by itself

but I got a Free DER V-1.5 and a a serialized MX-774 (#30) Fantastic!

Thanks Semroc!

Crocodile 12-24-2012 03:53 PM

Amazing.

Got the primer on the booster and the glider flew straight and true from my second story window. This was a fun build. Semroc just has to add about 20 more fins to this model ;)

Our work here is nearly done

Good for your PO! Mine listed on line that they left a notice at my house at 5:07 on Monday. We were home and no evidence that delivery was tried could be found. The order was delivered on Wednesday morning, however.

Rocketcrab 12-28-2012 08:50 AM

Placed an order on Sunday evening, December 23. Arrived yesterday. Simply amazing. Do those folks ever sleep? :chuckle:

New Years Day Launch in Forks WA

My Christmas was busy building the kits I ordered. By New Years we were launching them.

Orbital Transport B6-4 flew fine. The glider stalled a few times, need to add a little weight to the nose.
Starlight B6-4 straight, like it was on a launch rod the whole way.
Saki, to my surprise went straight up on a B6-4. Go Groonies!
My Sprite didn't eject again. Next time it goes up it will be better. Motor hook is in, so nothing left to do but shave a little of the nose end of the motor so when the ejection charge goes off it slams back into the aft end of the hook.

Thanks Semroc for a great bunch of kits. My kids and I had a lot of fun today even though it was pretty chilly.
