I hit 73 completed builds for 2021. Since painting season for me is over, that will probably be it for this year. In mid-October I realized good painting weather was coming to an end so I did a bunch of easy to build and paint rockets (Blue Bird Zero, Phoenix Bird, Nike Apache, Astron Sprint XL, Super Neon, Hornet and a Flutter By).
In Que now is a Flis Deuces Wild (actually ready for paint), a Semroc Maple Seed, Estes Blackbird, Starship Nova, Greyhawk, and Asteroid Explorer. The holidays always slow builds way down, so not sure when I will get these to the ready-for-paint stage. I think last year I had seven that were started right when the Derecho storm hit and did not get touched again until this past March. Keep Building and Posting! I always like to see and hear what everyone else is working on. Last edited by Don Altschwager : 11-22-2021 at 03:30 PM. Reason: Bad Grammer... |

You added to your collection to achieve a total of 73 builds, or you actually built 73 rockets in one year? If the second - WOW! |

I built 73. Trying to get through a big backlog. There were 13 new acquisitions. None of the 73 were E2X type; i.e., everyone of them had to be painted. Last year I built 43 but about a third were E2X type. |
