--Although you *may* want to use a nylon chute, given the 23+ f.p.s deployment on a C6-5.  
My supervisor called me this morning and wanted me work a late shift, so this design is a result of my "non-structured" morning.

Nice one, Jay!
I like both the look and the name. A larger body tube on the forward end of rockets has come to be one of my favorite design elements, and I like "Hold Your Head Up," too.
Are the body and pod tubes painted silver (since Argent means silver or white metal)?
