This is a joint project with Marlin Philyaw, a friend and legend in Texas HPR. He is serving a an informal advisor on my L3 8 inch Pike and this is so I can learn some old school ideas from him as he got to use some of the details I will use on the Pike. If you don't know Marlin the phrase that best describes him is " If he walked in to a junkyard with enough tools he would walk out with a Saturn V " . This project is parallel to my L3 but I think it deserves its own thread. The fins and interlocking rings are from CNC upscale and the 3D printed scale details are from Landeu . The thrust plate is SCP and the FG parts and alum av-bay lids are from Madcow. The nose has 104 holes drilled, tapped and countersunk for #4 screws just for looks and yes he is making the booster.
