So a couple of months ago, I started this thread where I said "OK, next big build, what should I get...?" and everyone had some good advice. I had it down to the Wildman Punisher LDRS special (which, duh. What a deal!) or the PML Small Endeavour (such a sharp-looking kit!)
My wife said as I was choosing, "DON'T GET BOTH. Father's day is coming up...."
So I got the Punisher.
...I was just informed that she held off because she's heard me looking at yet other rockets and doesn't want to get me something I no longer want. And now I'm trying to decide if the PML Small Endeavour is what I really want.
What have you built lately that was really cool?
Right now, I'm still considering the Small Endeavour. Also the PML Bumble Bee or MR-1.
Also the MAC 3FNC
Also the LOC Athena-3
Also ...well, the more I look, the more I think "Dang, ____ is COOL. Maybe I should get that!"
At this point I'd like to avoid true dual-deploy (for a number of reasons, including "I have a Chute Release that works" (which is why I say "true" DD - I think of the CR as "pseudo DD") and "I want to work on building simpler stuff before I make that leap" and "I want to build an Eggtimer to hone my electronics fabricating skills before I start building something that detonates black powder").
I'd like to challenge myself, but I'm not ready for, say, a TLP kit.
I have a CTI Pro29 3g case but I'm thinking I might jump up to 38mm for this.
Any thoughts about the models I listed? Any new "Oh, you have to build this!!!" recommendations?
Maybe I'll just give my wife a list and tell her to surprise me
(and I know it won't get delivered on Father's Day, I'm OK with that)
....regardless, it sure beats getting a tie!!!!
