A large box arrived at Semroc yesterday. We ship lots of boxes, but rarely receive one from a customer. Inside the box was the best looking Saturn 1B I have ever held!

Chan Stevens tried to surprise us and he DID! We sat around the kitchen table and stared at it for a long time. How he created that mastepiece from a small box of paper and wood is just unbelievable. He supplied the missing ingredient that we could not fit into the box. He supplied the love that a master craftsman mixes in with the glue, sanding sealer, and paint to create something well beyond the wildest dreams of a simple model rocket kit manufacturer.

We will show this kit off whenever we can. We just have to remember to tell prospective owners that they must supply the missing ingredient to get one that looks as good as it does.

He mentioned this to me at the last QUARK launch we both attended. I know Chan is much more of a craftsman than I would ever be, so I'm anxious to see the final result.
