Besides, I wasn't asking Carl. (THICK LOWER CLASS BRITISH ACCENT) "It was *you* lot, awright?"

Thumbs up The (Proposed) Semroc "Tau Zero"

(deep breath) I can do that. In fact, they'll probably begin:

"BEFORE YOU START

The Semroc [*Yeah, baby!*] "Tau Zero" isn't a difficult rocket to build, but it will require painting *as you go along,* rather than waiting until after you've completely assembled it."


*Thank you,* Carl! I appreciate the chance!


Ecstatic,

P.S. Carl, have I ever admitted that the whole reason I bought RockSim was so I could (clears throat self-consciously) collaborate with you?

P.P.S. And *yes,* I *did* vote for it (only once!) on the URL listed earlier? Wouldn't *you* do it, if you were me?

I find squadron putty to be a horrible choice for filler when working with balsa....much harder to sand/shape than Elmer's filler....I used to use it but it was awful. Works great as a PLASTIC filler as it was intended though.

You'd better be very explicit about how and when to paint which piece, or I'll screw it up.

Or... I *would* screw it up if I ever painted anything.
