    Asparagus, Stinky Urine and St Luke

    ...all night long after a dinner at which I had partaken of them, they played (lyrical and coarse in their jesting as the fairies in Shakespeare's Dream) at transforming my humble chamber into a bower of aromatic perfume." -Marcel Proust

    Found LOKI 38-480 motor

    I was about to comment the same thing. I like the I316SF reload a whole lot.

    An "R"-powered rocket build

    For your S rocket you may want to contact Innovative Composite Engineering. They have a 16” mandrel (I believe it is twenty feet long) that would be perfect for your application. They work with 100% CF pre-preg and can build a tube to any thickness. The finished tube would weigh a fraction of...

    Why I love rocketry -- a story in pictures.

    Wow! I recognize quite a few rockets. Did you take all those pictures yourself? If so, you have witnessed the launch of a whole lot of huge rockets!

    It is all so much clearer now. Thank you.

    Do you... Ever get tired... Of using so... Many ellipsis... Incorrectly?

    I try to do my part by encouraging kids of all genders and ethnicities (at my rural Oregon school we don’t get a huge variety of the latter) to participate in our rocket club. I’m fairly proud of my Rock-It Girls - they may be white and middle class, but they’re not old men!

    An "R"-powered rocket build

    Absolutely! This will be my first trip down to Black Rock, I’m really looking forward to it. I’ll be with the guys from Team NUMB (keg- launchers extraordinaire) and will definitely search you out if you’re there. I hope to get at least one flight out of the upscale Dragonfly that our Rock-It...

    Any Boaters on TRF?

    100 mph on the water doesn’t seem fast? I suppose it is all about what you are used to, 50 seems pretty fast to me...

    An "R"-powered rocket build

    I certainly hope you do launch at BALLS! Admittedly my motivation is somewhat selfish - I really want to see this thing launch. I would be willing to wager that a lot of other people following this thread would also like to see the R Rocket fly. While some might make it out to a FAR launch, a...

    Any Boaters on TRF?

    That thing should fly with 350 HP! What is the top speed on that? It looks like you have a few toys to play with besides rockets and planes...

    Definitely! Is that you driving? Crazy...

    Try again later, sometimes it is weird. I have better luck with the phone app.

    Any Boaters on TRF?

    Thanks! I actually can’t believe we’re getting the boat, it has been a lot of years dreaming of a bigger boat... Your boat sounds like a serious fishing machine. I liked the idea of a small cabin, but the wife was totally against it. In reality we are fair weather boaters for the most part...

    Any Boaters on TRF?

    I’ve seen some crazy videos of racing sailboats, people hanging like you’re describing. Nothing I would want to do myself... I’ve driven a wave runner one time - it was up to 70 in no time. Kind of scary. The smaller standup jet skis look like a blast, but I’m not coordinated or athletic...

    Any Boaters on TRF?

    Sailing is the one kind of boating I haven’t done more than a handful of times. From my limited experience it can be incredibly beautiful and peaceful, but can also induce some serious sea sickness in those of us prone to it... Yep, this is my first grownup boat at age 46. ;)

    Any Boaters on TRF?

    I watched some of those tiny hydroplanes race in Southern Oregon when I was a teenager. Crazy fast for so little horsepower.
