I call shenanigans 
I had lunch with Elon Musk today.
Well, its an unfinished basement. I wasn't gonna show that off. Ha!
Well, you guys asked for it. Lol The basement is 1100sqft and has been "under construction" for years. Lol
Right now the closet is home to my Nike Smoke and Talon.
I wish I had befor pictures. It was God awful!

Darn-it Neil. . . had I known you were going to have lunch with Elon, I would have tried to stay an extra day or two and meet 2 of my rocketry idols in one week!!!
Note that they say the camera adds 20 pounds. It was very windy and that also adds 20 pounds. Therefore, the guy in the pic is at least 40 pounds thinner than you are seeing. Quite a good looking, fit and well groomed individual. The wind might even add 25 pounds. . .
Why not!!! If anything has any semblance of orginization or even space to walk, you'd beat 90% of the forum by default! I'm afraid if I posted my area, I'd either get an OSHA visit (Me: "Wait, can OSHA inspect a home?" OSHA: "In your case, sir, for the greater good, we must.") or an invite for a Discovery channel show about hoarding. . .

I do have some things I am thinking of parting with. A couple kits. Some electronics. A couple parts. A Kosdon J 1500 case. Odd crap. Idk. I do tend to hoard. Lol

Cool! 
I have the old Performance Rocketry version. It’s a great flyer, too!

I'm highly envious of your basement.
If it was cleaned without heavy equipment, it was nowhere close to God awful.
It's a bit of an eyesore. Lol its roughed in. (Mostly) I have the electric and plumbing done. It's been a 13 year project. Lol

Or high explosives and perhaps a hazmat suit.
I've had a few water heaters "Let go" and flooded my basement. My main drain has backed up too. I implore you to get those beautiful rockets a few inches off the floor!!
+1 on keeping hydrated!
Cheers
