Here's a score that I thought people might want to see or pick-up.
Found this while wandering the aisles in Michael's:
Michael's Rocket
It's a balsa birdhouse, that can easily be convered to 24mm, D's or E's. You'll have to fill in the bird entrance hole. You'll probably have to redo the fins, possibly as they're currently about 1/4" thick and stubby. By eye-balling they don't seem large enough to provide stability. The n/c portion of the rocket easily comes off to where nose weight could be added. And the body provides very adequate room for a recovery harness/chute.
Price was approximately $8.50 or so. With a 40-50% off coupon, you can do as I did and pick this up for less than $5.00. They're located in the unfinished balsa/wood selection area.
