    Post a pic that makes you LOL

    My mate turned up at my place with his moota to show me the brand new wide wheels he'd just fitted himself. Every wheel nut was on backward. Took at least 5 minutes before the tears from laughing stopped. He became a nuclear power plant designer.......

    A lot of people concentrate on getting the rocket launched. The more important part is getting your chute deployed... Welcome back to rocketry. Lots of new things to play with. 3D printing and Arduinos..... What's not to like. Have fun.
