I've had really good results with Rusto X2. I've found that it does take a while to fully cure though.

Yikes! How hard'd you hit it? Kinda looks like it completely ruined the conical tip...I need to be more careful. I hit the tip of the nose cone on the ceiling.

Who hasn't at some point hit the ceiling with an assembled rocket?
Done it numerous times in the garage.
Looking good! Excited to see this little cluster fly. Did you pick motors yet?
Amazing what a little forced perspective can do for you... Do not put that cat into that lander and launch it with this rocket. It's against NAR and Tripoli rules!
Yeah, I decided on two CTI H163 White Thunder. Should give it a nice ride.
I didn't know how heavy that Aerocon 60" chute is. (Or more likely I did know, and had forgotten.) It weighs over 12oz! Plus, because of how the shroud line loop is, to use a swivel, I'd have to use two quick links. That adds another 2.25oz. When I plugged the weights into Open Rocket it took a couple hundred feet off the expected altitude. Oh well, 1500 ft is good enough for Captain Low-N-Slow!
Be glad you don't have the 72" orange one. I bought it then had to build a bigger rocket. That thing weigh in at 2.2pounds!!
Got a new tool. It's a Craftsman Nextec cordless multi-tool. It came with the big sanding pad, but the "finger" sander was optional. Worth it, though, very handy for sanding fins and their nooks and crannies.
Now that's a cool tool!! How do you like using it? What's the battery life on it?
