    My NARTREK Journey

    Been a long week at work and haven't felt quite well all week. Despite this, Elfo and I got some building done tonight as the other kids were at various activities and mom was out of town! First, we painted his Estes Viking he assembled earlier in the week. Next, we got cracking on his Estes...

    My NARTREK Journey

    I will be doing some payload work with my STEM club kids in the future too so I was a sucker for a D/ E kit rocket with that clear section.

    My NARTREK Journey

    What did you do rocket wise today?

    Working on a few different models right now. Started with rockets about two years ago and just got serious about making some models. Here's a peek at what I finally finished today. The black on the fins needs some work, but other than that I'm pretty happy about it. The image on the package...
