Too bad I'm not closer... the BBII is one of my favorite rockets.

Glad to see you're feeling up to getting back behind the keyboard!

I have one in the pot... I better go check on it.

Don't be sorry. We wasted enough time and energy on OT politics. I, for one, will take a moratorium on political discussions for the near future. As for projects:
As you've probably already guessed, I'm a multi-tasker. I can't just work on one project and see it through to completion before starting another one.

So, your "big project" is getting better so that you can build and fly some big projects. Take it easy and don't try to do too much, too soon. Coming from a bloodline with notoriously quirky tickers, I've seen what happens when one tries to overdo it. Speedy recovery,

This project will fly at BALLS (Black Rock Desert, Nevada) next year. Come on down, I could use a hand lifting it.
Anyone have any Kit Bashing ideas for an AT Wart-Hog ?
Picked one up at Hobby Lobby for $19.00

Insert into trash can and get a LOC Legacy?
Build with no thrust ring or through hole blocks and fly with a USR
29-360-BK (0.5 sec).It can handle it no prob too.
Well, I did a rather simple one. I picked one up a while ago at the HL half price sale. Finally built it this spring/summer. I left off the extra rings and conduit thingies, and just built a 4FNC version. Then after looking at the name a while it just sort of came to me:
WartHog WartHog Wart Hog Wart Hog Wart Hog Wart Hog Wart HogWart HogWart
So I painted it gold and covered it with Harry Potter stickers. HogWart and it's cousin the Golden Snitch flew at NARAM on F20-4 and C6-0 respectively. There's a picture of the Hogwart on either Chris and/or Craig's NARAM site.

Yow. Good luck, and best wishes for a speedy recovery.
You'll be wanting one of these then:

I'm just starting on my Level 2 project for next spring. A 2.3X upscale of the Estes Pathfinder. 4" to 3" and 8 feet long. I'm going with a PML
54/39/29 Extended Kwik Switch Motor mount and CPR System. Should be able to fly it on I's through K's.
Switch to a USR 2.6 inch interchange mount (3x29mm + all the Kwick Switch-tm mounts you want to add) or USR 3.0 inch interchange mount (4x29mm + all the Kwick Switch-tm mounts you want to add).

You're right. I delete a lot of the OT and POL stuff and "sometimes" there is little left.
I'm in the process of building 2 PML kits. The Little and the big Lunar Express. Great kits.I plan to use these kits for CAR level 2 and
3 certifications. I don't love shaping G10. I'm taking all the precautions but YECCHH! I'm nearly finished a 12" Art Applewhite Saucer. That should fly on a Cesaroni G79SS on the 31st. Paint only required on a BBIVBAL.(Len B
It's funny that you find it necessary to attack me. I've never proposed that my motors are anything better than "experimental". I do it purely for the fun and education of it.
Who's being a troll now?
Since we agree with each other, why pick a fight? I assume this makes us best friends again.
Let's fly rockets.

Whoa! That'll be awesome!!
Is there something wrong with making a 6 inch P, or is that just morbid rocket geek humor? :)
-dave w
Morbid geek humor and let's face it, an inordinate number of "TRA member" P's explode/dissassemble interestingly.
I have identified 48 distinct SRM failure modes. Plenty of them are seen in EX motors, and exponentially more in big-ass EX motors.
So when I say people should buy mine I am not being egocentric. I am making a helpful suggestion, expecially considering the price I charge.
