I just got a rail and I wanted it to hinge at the base so I started welding and this is what I came up with............What do ya think?
 
I think you ought to try launching some of the kid furniture!!!

seriously though, do you have some kind of slides or buttons that will fit the rail?
 
I am not sure if you kids furniture will fly better on a rail or a rod???

LOL, you rail looks good. How heavy a rocket do you think it will handle?
 
Bowhunter...
Just my opinion but, you might want to make the footprint of the base a bit larger. Just what I can see from the pic, it looks a little undersized for good stability. Then again, it may fly everything you can put on it w/o a problem. ;)

Yea, I think you are right...... This is why I was asking how heavy of a rocket he was thinking this rail could handle......
 
The feet on it was just something i could use to take a pic inside it is dark getting off work on 2nd shift but here is it with the other pad platform
