Let's have a little contest, no prizes just for fun.
We still have to paint it and add some details.

I think he's saying "DON'T TOUCH MY JUNK!" there :88)

Alright, but if you touch my junk rocket, I'm having you arrested.

:rotfl2:

Are you kidding? When Dowly heard about the way TSA screeners are groping passengers before every flight, he immediately bought a ticket for New York City. From there he plans to fly to LA - with stopovers in Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Nashville, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami, New Orleans, Houston, St. Louis, Chicago, Minneapolis...

Nah, this is mine. I have Polish neighbours so it should make them nervous.

The last time I tried a rocket kit was when I was back in middle school shop class. I was horrible with it, and my 'launch' was more horizontal than vertical, but damn if it wasn't fun.

The last model rocket I made was just beautiful. I spent hours putting it together. The paint was flawless. Looked closely like the U2 concerning paint. About a week of work all told. Even down to the antennas I fashioned from tooth picks for some authentic looks. Absolutely a piece of work. I wrapped the return parachute with care. The nose cone would pop off with the slightest pressure from the motor as it should. There was to be no problems on launch day as it were.

Well...launch day arrived. Found a large field around College Park MD. The rocket was placed with care upon the Estes launch pad. The ignition wires attached to the ignitor. The ignitor placed into the tail cone of the motor. The launch key safely in my pocket. Finally it was time to insert the key for ignition. Finger on the BIG RED BUTTON. Countdown began. Well...the SOB took off like a bat out of hell. I mean just skyward and gone. How was I to know the D motor would send the rocket into orbit? Finally a small puff of smoke was seen. The parachute ejection charge had gone off. I spied the chute all be it very small to the eye due to the height. Alas, she was so high that she caught a thermal and floated into oblivion never to be seen again. I wrapped up my gear and went home completely dejected. I was planning on one launch then displaying the rocket as the work put into it made it worthy for display. It was not to be. I never made another rocket again. Until I got married. I got a new brother-in-law who wanted to play with rockets. :yep: We made some mad stupid rockets! :88) Fun fun fun............

lol, this rocket isn't going anywhere, I had a couple of plotter tubes lying around a work and as I had a day off I asked the little man if he wanted to make something and he chose a rocket.

When he is a bit bigger I will be getting him real rockets.

Do these count? I made them at home on my junk computer...
