Where do you keep your rockets?

[Danomite45]

For the longest time our rockets lived in my son's bedroom. Now that he's 14 and "too old" for rockets, he wants them out.
I reloacated them to the living room on top of the china cabinet.
Just waiting for the wife to come home and say something.

I intend to move them down to the spare bedroom, but we are in the middle of remodeling. Was even thinking about the garage.
So I gotta ask...would your wife let you keep your rockets on the china cabinet?
Where do you keep your rocket garden?

Please post with photos! Go!

No, my wife wouldn't let me put rockets on the china cabinet. Mine all hang from my garage ceiling. The garage has heat and a/c. There is something more that 180 rockets up there. The garage is where I spend most of my time.

I recently built a rack for them in our son's "play" room (4 bedroom house, one kid, so he has a room full of legos, computer, etc). Just a 6' 1x6 with 5/8 dowels. Some others are on a large bookshelf in the same room.

Some live in a wine box in the basement, which also becomes a launch transport box. One of our favorite wineries (St. Julian in Michigan) shipped bottles in a box that has great pockets for holding rockets once you fill it with packing peanuts.

"Basement" option is missing from poll.

Up in the rafters, in the basement, for projects. In the rafters over the basement work out room, for completed rockets. They're pretty much hidden this way.

Most of mine are in the basement (there is a second level of shelves below what is shown). My FG ones are in the garage. The shelves are basically full - and my wife says I can't build more (going to need to get more creative where I stash them)

Looks like I am also missing the "warehouse" option!

What does PIE mean?
My guess is "Put It Everywhere".
If so that's what I would vote for.

I spend a lot of time on ARFCOM (AR15.com) and when one makes a poll in that forum you can't see the results unless you vote. PIE or "I like Pie" is for those who don't want to vote, but want to see the results. It's included in most every poll. I haven't posted polls here before and didn't realize the results can be seen before you vote here. Sorry for the confusion.

Man cave in the basement w extra over-flow table in middle of room. The shelves in the closet are the length of the room, and deep - great for LPR!

"Miscellaneous trees" should also be a survey option...

 

[Danomite45]

"Miscellaneous trees" should also be a survey option...

yep, I too have most of my rockets in trees....but that's not where I WANT to keep them!
Poll edited to add "trees".
It was just too good of a suggestion not to add!

[Back_at_it]

I have a dedicated area in the basement for building and another for storage.

To complicate things even more, I have an area in the build room where every rocket goes when it comes back from flying so it can be looked over and any cleanup or repairs can be made before it's moved back out to storage.

I also try to fly every rocket at least once per year so I have two separate spaces and rockets get moved from one location to the other when flown. Of course there are a couple of rockets that go out almost every time we fly as well.

Changed my vote to the 'tree' option for research accuracy.

 

[OverTheTop]

I have a gaggle of them on my work desk:



Here is one from a while back

I have been known to have my half-scale Nike Apache in there too, but it stands on the floor and nearly reaches the ceiling.

How about just the V2 fin can? You could probably fit your desk inside it.

Basement gets the nod for me.

The only thing I like more than pie is more pie.

 

[Smoothrivers]

Not quite as extensive collection, but have only been back on the hobby for 8 months or so.

And ponds, don't forget ponds . . . and other miscellaneous bodies of water.
