Alright, only took me a month to build. (Now watch me crash it on its maiden voyage, knowing my luck...)

Looks GREAT! This is one favorite design of current Estes rockets. It is a fantastic flight on an Estes E9!

Excellent work and I'm sure that you won't crash it on the maiden.

Great build - she looks beautiful.

I loved building mine! It has been waiting for its maiden launch for quite a while though (need a bigger launch rod). Just getting everything straight and smooth is a bit of an accomishment. Yours is a beaut!

looks nice, i build this one with my son. And I launch it with a D engine and then with a E9-6, now I can't wait for the next flight. Is an awesome rocket i hope that it holds together for many flights.

Looks really nice! I've got one in my build queue and am looking forward to it. Any tips on building/finishing that you picked up?

Thanks =D

I papered the fins but not the intakes, and then just used elmers wood filler and lots of sanding (ugh) to smooth out the visible joints
