I do not want to say too many good things about Semroc, but they have made getting back into rockets (35 years away) much easier. I have begun the orbital transport. I purchased one in the mid 1970's for around $3.25 with paper route money. I basically flew it before the glued dried. I have more patience now and I have just completed filling the body tube spirals with a thinned out water based carpenters putty. I sanded these down with 320, then 400 and lastly 600 grit sand paper. As a kid, I would have has this airborne by now and would be bummed after the glider made a couple huge stalls and crashed.

Why not?

I suppose if you don't have time to type out all the good things... :D

('cause it would take a WHILE.)

Because if I did, I might be accused of being a troll and working for them. Gads, there website takes me back to the day when a C6-5 had more power over me than teen hormones.
