Nice looking build. Back about 16 years ago in my other rocket life. I started when I found out they make some gigantic motors called G80's. I had no body around me that was into rockets but I had done the estes stuff back in the 70's and had read the handbook of model rocketry many many times. So I got me a tube. I believe it had 1/4 inch walls. Then I started building. I made the cone out of a Styrofoam craft cone. Covered it with something can't remember what and cut the fins from plywood. I flew it on a G80 and then found the RMS motors and started flying those. It was loads of fun. Then I found a few other people that were of a like mind and we formed the first Kentucky prefecture. BluesRocks has come of that first club. What fun we had. and before I quit that time I was level 2 certified with a LOC Magnum on a J800.
