Found out the hard way that alcohol takes the metallic finish right off an Estes Mammoth.

Tonimus,
I like that red and white one hanging between the garage door tracks.
What is it?
Looks like a giant Estes Heat Seeker.
I was going to pick up a Heat Seeker to clone a real built rocket and do an upscale.
Maybe not as big as yours though.
Very nice! I like the first green rocket, but broke too many fins to with rockets that had then stick down that much.
You have to post a pic of that one!
At least you now have to make your mammoth with a unique paint scheme.
Here is the evidence. I was trying to clean up a little blob of stray epoxy. One of the marks is from the iPrOH on the paper towel, the other mark is from my iPrOH-fingerprints.

My daughter cried (she's a perfectionist like me) so I ordered some of this from Amazon (I'm a sucker.) Looks like I'm going to have to paint the whole thing metallic orange now.
Metallic green adhesive vinyl stripes! It would look awesome, and is easier than painting the whole thing.
I suggested a metallic silver stripe, but she wasn't having it. (Like I said, I'm a sucker.) At least I'll get to experiment with a new kind of paint and I may use it for my new Solar Warrior that's in the works.
Is them coupons good for online orders?
The closest HL is 80 miles away.
40% off a sewing machine would be a heck of a good deal.
The coupon says good for in store and online use. But read the fine print, not sure if sewing machines are included.

working on an estes generic e2x for the fun of building something easy.
Mailman delivered this couple of days ago. It'll be next on the build list after my Quest Tomahawk.
Just making some epoxy igniters
