Hobby Shops in Los Angeles?

[astronboy]

I will be heading out to LA for a few days and was wondering if anyone knew of a hooby shop that was worth visiting.... like, one with a good supply of rockets (esp parts or motors?)

Thanks!!

check out Smith Brothers' Hobby Shop
i don't know how they are today, but that's where i used to get ALL my rocketry supplies 30 years ago!

in fact, it used to be across the street and named Larry's Hobby Shop.

it is on Reseda Blvd. just south of Nordhoff St. and is on the West side of the street.

Looks like I'll be stopping there too! I'm flying out Wednesday the 19th. Maybe I'll see you there, just look for the Steelers hat!
