WOOHOO! I scored!!!

[Neil]

Guess what *I* found under the tree this morning!

A PML Tethys!!!

And 100' of 9/16" Tubular Nylon, the book called "Small Sounding Rockets", a "cold heat" cordless soldering iron, and a Makita 12V cordless drill

WOOHOO!!!! I also got some cash from the Grandparents, which I will use on either some 4" tubing for an ASP scale model, or a really nice pellet gun. With the Tethys to work on, I think im leaning towards the gun, cause I already have several rocket projects going, and I want to finish those before I set to work on the ASP anyways.

Id go into extreme detail about the Tethys, but I think you all know what a Tethys is, so ill spare you

Were gonna have some fun this year, I can tell already. A cordless drill, plenty of shock cord material, a cordless soldering iron, and a Tethys... What fun! If only the weather was a little better. The epoxys too cold to work.

I think "santa" did very well this year. I cant wait to start my building frenzy...

Oh, I also got a Squirrel Works "Cloud Warrior" from my TRF Secret Santa! Thanks, whoever you are!

I did pretty good myself...... Mostly non-rocketry stuff, but great gifts.....

My bigger gifts were;

A set of Nerf-bars for my truck (the running board / steps)

A spiderco brand pocketknife

A 100 sheet pack of Photo Paper for my photo printer

$100 check from my mom (to used for rockets of course)

when do we get to see the tethys fly??? CMASS? or will you send her on her maiden voyage at cherryfield?

 

[Neil]

Hm... Maybe CMASS, on an H, but more likely in Cherryfield on an I. The things kinda short and stocky, so I am going to build her like a tank and let er rip. A rocket like that with a 54MM motor mount should get some pretty good speed off the rail...
