EVERYONE (including all vendors) are welcome! Like I've said in the past, I'm not looking to replace TRF. YORF is a niche forum. ;)

well this seems like a nice laid back forum... and everyone seems to like Semroc which is good considering I carry them and at our usually great prices... also if anyone wants anything form semroc but I dont have it... just give me a week and Ill get it for you this way you can have it with a normall order... dont ever be afraid to ask for something special I like going above and beyond with special orders...

well does everyone here seem to have the same vendetta against estes that a lot on TRF have? I could never figure that out... I mean yes there stuff isnt like it used to be but thats what has made rocketry so widespread and available today... so if you like old style thats what the companies that are now like Estes of old are for...

FWIW, I liked estes as a kid, and still occasionally build their kits. Most of my engines come from estes. My sons first few kits have all been estes. Sure, I wish they weren't made in China. But hey, there are plenty of vendors now to meet my needs not met by estes. It is a great time to be a BAR!
