Getting back to the build... I'm starting to put fins on the middle stage. The fins are solid on the upper stage, and were laid on as straight as I could put them (I glued them along side the guide line). I clamped a splint onto the upper stage fins, and use this as a guide to hold the new fins in place. I verified that they were straight down the guide line, too.

Honestly, I just thought you'd wing it...
 
This build will be a real feather in your cap if you don’t fowl out.

This has to go on record as the punniest build thread ever. I really like that transition, btw, but 'pun' spelled backwards is 'nup' and a nups a nup, already! I do hope your rocket comes home to roost. Hope it doesn't thermal away like a chicken with his head cut off. Not to ruffle any feathers, but the nested booster is cool too!
Okay-I'm done.....

I think with all your eggsperience, you should have eggcellent yolks to share. I guess you just need to keep aBreast of things here. I mean really it catches in my craw that you wouldn't have anything more to crow about. You've got to have more pluck that that. I think that you need to keep in mind how the pecking order works around here (and don't lay an egg).

I held off as long as I could, but...

Sad thing for the rest of us single guys... When this goes out to all the launches, he's gonna get all the chicks.
