I'm talking about the tings that you think you might actually do some day (as opposed to being the first amateur to put a payload into orbit, other impossible things). I bet most of us have some.
I think about building a fleet of sounding rockets - sustainers and boosters - all in the same scale so that with a set of interstages one could mix and match like Tinkertoys. Real sounding rockets vary so much in size that these would probably span mid-power to L2.
My other one is a fleet of various size Big Bertha upscales and downscales. All scaled according to MMT size, and one made in every standard MMT size, from micromax to 150 mm. With a list of names that goes:
