Inspired by Cl(VII)'s L3 build thread, I made a circle cutting jig.

Bought a couple of 'mini's at Madcow today. Still working on my Eggtimer TRS and cursing at my 3d printer.
That appears to work better than my method of stuffing the totes under the futon in the guest room - which only works to a limited extent, due to clearance issues. I do have a similar shelf/tote arrangement in my actual workshop, organizing my bicycle parts. However, I do little rocket building in the workshop. So, the rocket supplies are not down there...Latest addition to workshop, a 60" wide shelving unit, 6 feet tall, 18" deep. Got it to hold a LOT of boxes of various models, had run out of shelf space to store more. Have not even started to use it for real, the ones shown are test fits. Need to sort and organize models and boxes and do some labeling.

I like the idea George, just checked with the wife and we have a couple of bins similar to the purple handled ones which would be perfect for my LPR models.
Why build one when you can have two at twice the price?
Two more pics...
To borrow a quote from Haddon in the movie "Contact":
So that's another of those see-through airframes from Wildman??
Attended the SARG rocket club meeting this morning which was followed by an impromptu session in the planetarium parking lot of setting up the launch gear for function testing.
Came home and messed with my altimeter bays as it looks like the first launch of the 2015/2016 Fall/Winter Rocket Season is about to begin in less than 30 days.
Good idea. There are two extinguishers in the workshop. One right next to the main entry/exit door, so available if the other one is unavailable due to a fire, or coming inside thru the door to find a fire in progress (smoke alarm). The other (most likely to be used if need be) next to where LiPo batteries are charged, in-between and close to the main area I do soldering (most likely areas for an accidental fire to begin).Upgraded the workbench; Fire Extinguisher (It's been an extra floating around the garage, so I figured what the hell), peg board, cork tile for posting instructions and top shelf.
Your kids are the future of sport rocketry and it was a pleasure to see how attached your daughter is to her SNXL.Good to put names with faces. I was the one in the back with the kids that wouldn't let me go to the meeting without bringing their rockets.

Next launch I will bring my SuperDuper Neon 29 and put it up on a G53 or an H97.
She'll love it, so long as it is pink or has glitter. We'll try and make the 29th launch.
