So years ago on the original forums, the discussion came about by a hand full of us that decided that we would adventure into this "free" material known as tint tubes. Not sure if any of you guys have ever seen these but I stand proven that these things are GREAT for bodies and ebays. Now their sizes aren't always 100% perfect so if you go down this road, you will see that you will be building a 99.99% custom rocket scratch build. I had a guy here most of you know him as Sandman the nosecone maker
design and build me a custom nosecone for this rocket. These bodies guys are amazing, they sand really well, they hold epoxy like none other if prepped right, and for some no painting is needed. Wanna know the absolute best part? THEY'RE FREE!!!!! I've found that most tint shops that have these throw them away. After some phone calls, and explaining what it is I do with them, they give them to me by the box loads. They come in different lengths from my experience 3ft-6ft tubes depending on the size of the tint. I'm going to link you guys to my Level 1 and Level 2 rocket that flew beautifully on a H144 Loki motor. I failed on my first attempt because my BP charges weren't large enough to separate it fell from 1800ft and landed on its side.. all it suffered was a small crack in one of the fins, and the body bounced off the turf.
