I used my Ace Hardware primer for the first time today and initial thoughts were that it is a low solids/high solvent type of paint and I was not impressed. So I was putting the primer on an old Delta 2 air frame and small nose cone, and it took me about eight coats to cover the airframe properly. But it was very fast drying so I'm assuming it's just a straight lacquer. This is a typical case of you get what you pay for.i have. not my favorite. slow dry time, lots of run (admittedly, in relatively poor painting conditions). also, my local Ace, which i favor over HD for personal reasons, seems to have their products on the shelf a longer time. i've purchased caulk and sealant there which was too old to use. not to rattle an empty can (*rimshot) but that rusto auto filling primer (6 bucks on amazon) is the bomb diggity. do they still say 'bomb diggity?'
Nope......do they still say 'bomb diggity?'

At 58, this is one of the few places that I feel like a young'n.
A lot of cool photos in this edition!Getting a kick out of re-reading the National Sport Launch article in the September/October Sport Rocketry magazine, not the least reason being the photo of my wife holding my Semper Fi, along with the mention of the memorial flight.
Heard a rumour that Bill Stine has retired from Estes. Anyone confirm?
I'm always amazed at how small the gauge of wire that's inside most cablesChecked my altimeter battery that might have had an intermittent connection. Turned out to be the USB cable to the charger. Cable cut up and disposed of. Checked the altimeter system anyway.
