Other retro rocket.

This is the one I made this past two weeks. Inspired by the 1960's NASA rockets.

Sweet I like it! Awesome launch platform too!

 

[Mr Rocket]

I bow down. You have mad modeling skills!

Did you make the launch tower?

 

[kpklein]

Thank you. The tower is made from wood dowels, Masonite and hardware cloth and various other pieces of wood and wire. If the weather is good tomorrow I plan to fly it.

Interesting note, as I sit here in the local airport terminal, there is a nice big old DC-3 Goony bird sitting outside the window, fantastic site. I was here for the airshow last weekend, it is dubbed "Duggy" The Smile in the Sky! it has a smile painted on it.

Cool rocket and tower! Post pics of her flying please!


Launching rockets (or missiles in my case) is so easy a chimp could do it. Read a step, do a step, eat a banana.
