When he says the word "some".
Oh yeah, I put some thermite in that motor (watches as the igniter doubles the impulse of the motor)...
No, I just spent some money at Wildman's (wife watches as they have to take out a second mortgage)...
I have only spent some time on TRF today (logs off after an 8 hour period)...
But this one takes the cake:
Rwjr said to me "I'll grab you some stuff off of Sather's "Free Table"...
Yeah right...
After a 2 month shipping ordeal (due to minor complications with shipping confusing Matt Fletcher and Fletcher industries...) I get this box at my house today... Inside....
Sure. There was some stuff from Sather's table... An Avionics bay and some black elastic shock cord. That is awesome.
What really made me laugh is what else was inside:
1- a 38mm 3 grain case
2- a used 36 inch chute
3- a new 36 inch chute
4- a roll of frog tape.
5- a roll of electrical tape.
6- some new syringes for use in injecting fillets.
7- some 1/2 tubular nylon shock cord
8- some 9/16 tubular nylon shock cord
9- some 1 inch nylon shock cord
10- some foam ear plugs- (for av-bay charge cups)
11- a 9 volt battery holder with soldered wired from Dog house Rocketry.
7-9 is what impressed me... I pulled out 30+ feet of just the 1/2 inch shock cord... Haven't yet pulled out the others...
So yeah... if ever a rocketeer tells you he has some stuff for you... Time to rip out the XXL u-Haul truck...
