Suggestive Rockets

So, I sprayed the final coat over the Baby Bertha rocket.
My wife commented that it looked pretty phallic.
Now I wanna know who she was comparing it to!

...she's not the first. I remember "It's So Big!" a high power rocket. "Sink The Pink" and a few more even less PC and not for mixed viewing

I can see her point. It looks like a sex toy with fins.

Naaa, that was the name of the rocket. Usually they are scratch built...as it were...

OK, now you have me intrigued. Where do I find images of these classics?

A good name for a rocket --- Alabama Black Snake.

You don't suppose she was hinting at something she'd like as a stocking stuffer?

I was freehand turning a nose cone for a BT60 and it came out looking kinda like a mushroom cap. The resulting rocket I dubbed as "Big Jim and the Triplets" was to say the least in bad taste and not at all family friendly. I tried to soften the look by putting a smilely face on it and renaming it "Mr Happy" but that really wasn't any better. I finally repainted it gloss black and called it the "Vader". It was a nice flying rocket as I recall though it tended to weathercock.

You may have found the secret to getting wives and girlfriends to help with sanding and polishing.

 

[ThirstyBarbarian]

Tell her it's a heat seeking moisture missile.

 

[FlyBoy]

I flew a rocket named Naked Fat Man, a Polecat 5.5" Fat Man dual deploy, seems no one wanted to see me to model for it before the launch.

FSI/Semroc has the "PENETRATOR"

 

[tmacklin]

Trans-lunar insertion? Venus probe? They don't call it the Johnson Space Center for nothing. :rofl:

High Power Rocketry mag, don't ask me which issues. It's enough to remember they are there

 

[TopRamen]

Estes makes one called "The Dink" and it's Pink.

Stocking stuffer? STOCKING stuffer? I think that this is a good place for me to shut up.

Many years ago I took a girlfriend to fly a rocket. When I came back from recovering one, she was holding an Alpha in a particular position and said "Now I understand guys' obsessions with rockets."

 

[ThirstyBarbarian]

The North Koreans have a rocket called the Taep'o-dong, which in English is roughly translated as "Type of Dong."
Yep... Their most sophisticated rocket is something they think of as some type of dong.
I think the Kim family is compensating for a shortcoming.

Many couples have a private name that they use when referring to the man's... Uh... Manhood.

You need to act fast and be sure your wife does not start referring to your junk as Baby Bertha.

At NARAM-33's manufacturers' demo we teased Estes' Mary Roberts about the Red Alert quite mercilessly.
