As usual a fun and clever build thread from the Capt . Looking good. Will the nose cone be one color?
I couldn't resist. :tongue:
I love the puns, guys, keep 'em coming! It's like we're all in 7th grade again. :lol:
That tip is to break the shock cone before it gets to the actual nose cone while this thing is hitting mach, right? Right? Please tell me I'm right...
Loving the build thread so far!

Oh thank god, for a second there I thought it might've been a well, you know what it looks likeOf course. Everyone knows you need a mach transition splitter to prevent damage to a 1:1.33 elliptical nose cone during subsonic to transsonic flight.
Looking at the "cone" I realized, It must be much colder in California than I realized.
Make sure you pack the chute properly... We don't want a recovery problem that causes the whole project to go t**s up.

Seriously, Jim, this stuff is hilarious.

This rocket needs a special engine that sounds like a motorboat.
Basswood has a very fine grain structure so it's no surprise that it turned out smooth.I sprayed on several coats of sanding sealer, sanding in between. Then sprayed on the usual Rusto 2X white primer. Finally, several coats of Rusto 2X pink. Once again, I'm amazed at how smooth the basswood turned out.
