Flyuing Sharpie?

I saw a little 1/4A scratcbuilt this past weekend that was supposed to look like a sharpie with fins. The guy who had it told me it was in a recent Sport Rocketry. Does anybody know which one?

March/April 2002 has plans to turn a real Sharpie into a 13mm flier. Uses a Sharpie cap for the cone and a BT-5 for the body. The plan includes a wrap to cover the BT-5. It requires some minor cap mods, some clay, and a balsa stop to keep the cap from sliding in too far. The rest is standard 13mm rocket construction.

Any chance I could sweet talk you out of a scan of the plans?

Dick just set me up. Thanx

Now for my evil plan

1. build one with clear fins

2. Build a big one (starting with BT-60) - I'll call it an adult crayon.
