Well, the snow in Quebec has finally melted and the fields are drying up. Here's hoping the weather will hold for some launches tomorrow.

Here's some pictures of my newly completed pad. 6' 1010 rail and mostly aluminum construction. Legs are removable, pad swivles and angle is adjustable with a quick release for loading rockets on the rail.

Can't wait to try it out.

Very nice. Do you have a list of parts and instructions?
 
Nice pad, where are you from? because in Lanaudière fields are in mod if not lakes. Ground still frozen so the water stay on surface.
 
sghioto -> Blast shield is a paint tray for now. Not featured in the photos as it would ruin the effect. . .

cwbullet -> A lot of parts were sourced locally and a friend milled and welded the base but I will work on putting together a list of parts and dimensions.

Area66 -> St-Hubert. If it rains one more time my backyard will be a swamp. Hoping some of the fields are ok.
