I feel like one of the people I crank-called when I was a kid.
"Excuse me, sir, do you have sixteen pound balls?"

Tell you what, Chuckles. If you don't post the pictures, you're going to have a bunch of middle-aged men VERY..........depressed.

Speaking of which, I bet everyone on this forum considers himself either middle-aged or younger. Am I right?

What could possibly be more dangerous? One boy, several pretty girls, hot rockets, short skirts, open fields...

You're already in highly dangerous territory, Charlie...

When I was a kid I had an extra D engine so I cut some triangles out of Balsa and glued them directly to the motor as "Fins" then glued some piece of plastic that was sort-of cone shaped to the top of the motor as a nose cone.... Stuck a fuse in it and lit it.

Needless to say, it didn't go "up" It went all squirly but generally away from us... until the ejection charge went off... then it came racing back strait twords my head. lol

I'm beginning to sense that Charlie is some sort of wild "outlaw" when it comes to rocketry !
