Nice. Nice.

Scoopula - the ultimate fillet pulling tool.

A lot of what has been listed is more material or component than it is a tool... but if I go to the webs, I find the following FRRE tolls:

Thrustcurve.org


VCP

WRASP

Parachute Decent Calculator There are plenty of these calculators out there...

You get the idea, there are many websites I use as tools for my rocketry needs... even The Rocketry Forum is a useful rocket tool.

I haven't talked to Gary lately, you got vcp to work in something besides XP? I can't get it to work in Win 7... I've been using vcp from 1.5 then he did 1.51 and really never finished it. I'd like to see a 2.0 before he retires

I still use vcp also. But it's not the only tranny maker out there. You have THIS option.

That was a rather exhaustive list, but it seemed to be kinda light on measuring tools. I would add at least a caliper, and perhaps a micrometer. If you get really into things get a dial indicator, mag base, and set of v blocks, for doing runout checks. I'm glad to see you listed routers, though. They are an extremely versatile tool, that can be used for several things in rocketry, from slotting tubes, to cutting plywood.

vcp prints fin patterns, too. With fin tabs. I have RASAero but it's just not the same.

Could you alphabetize the list please? And also remove the double spacing? And sort by "Tools" and "Supplies". (If you don't have the time, I will get around to doing it... I hope...)
Tools: Vacuum pump and table (For glassing fins), Mandrel (Ditto except for tubes), OpenRocket, Rocksim, Hotplate (Don't ask I can't tell. Research stuff.), sanding block.
Supplies: Masking tape (Duh. Might be a dupe), Two part expanding foam (Or Great Stuff).

If the list is organized I will double check my entry against it for dupes.

For when you're crying as you're repairing the aftermath of a failed deployment....

Shrink that list: nix the double spacing, and leave out specific brands (or put the brands under a category)
Others have mentioned categories. Would definitely make this less of a chore to comprehend.

Example

5 min. Epoxy:
-Loctite HD
-BSIndustries

Definitely agree with this, and for categories, power and hand tools would be good buckets

Yeah but i didnt list any brands under the OP so it would be kind of hard to find all the brands now.
