Ok, now that we've had a thread about what defines an odd rocket, perhaps
we could define what qualities make for a good odd rocketeer. Here are a
few thoughts from here:

Top 10 ways to identify an Odd Rocketeer

(10) Certified NAR Level 0.
(9) Shops at Party City for no apparent reason.
(8) Friends consider him to be a little ... different.
(7) Two words - attention deficit disorder.
(6) Can't count very well.
(5) Children hide their toys when he walks in.
(4) RSO just shakes his head when he sees him coming.
(3) Often says to spouse: "Recycling?? I can USE that!"
(2) Eats Pringles for the cans.
(1) Loves the smell of Dollar Tree in the morning.

I do that one....:D good tubes too, just a little greesey
 
Goes to the fishing section of the sporting goods store to buy rocket parts. Then stops in at the supermarket to get the parts that couldn't be found at the sporting good store.

Always thoroughly searches the area's dollar stores first before even thinking about making a trip to the hobby shop. The dollar store is the ultimate Odd-Roc Emporium.
 
is that always true though? That could be a symptom of undiagnosed wildman syndrome :D

Good point. It should be clarified that the nose weight is not required due to engine weight, but due to questionable stability from the start.
