Looks good, but I think you're missing a couple rods.

nice design. can you adjust windage / launch angle by varying the angle of the third leg?

not yet, its still at the 'stick a rock under a leg' stage. the store didn't have quite what I had in mind...so I've had to revise my original 'plan'.
looks like my other project should be ready for testing, its my Qhssgszcth F bird .

I'd say the usual start - tenish. I'll be there, and I'll have some bits for you for that project if you'd like them.

Chad, cool I have mine sanded and I have bought the epoxy for assembly. Dan gave me some rail buttons at the sod farm and showed me what he was doing with his. I'm still a bit confused but I have a few months to figure it out before MWP. That H motor still looks really, really wrong in my box o' motors.
