That's just wrong.

That was my first clone I built back in....I'm embarrassed to say...1989.

9 nose cones!

Back about 1999 when I was a Big Brother (my Little Brother is now 21 and in the Air Force) His first clone was the Bident (Trident II).

Only 7 nose cones.

I think everyone should thank me.

Every time I get together parts for a clone, in some cases hand-turning custom parts, Semroc goes and makes my efforts look foolish by releasing a kit.

*******s! ;-)

Hey, did I tell everyone I'm cloning the Centuri Little Joe II? The fancy cluster version?

Thanks for the tip! I'll start putting some money aside for the Semroc version!

This is just an xKit; a bag of parts to clone the original and not a full-blown kit!

It does not include the decals, but we have them in stock. We have had so many people ask for the parts as a set, we quietly released the xKit, knowing we were working on the kit for eventual release with full instructions and decals (and a higher price.)

Don't tell Sheryl I said this, but if you ask her for decals with the xKit, she will probably send you a set. But don't tell her I mentioned it!

Sharp eyes will see much more in the works over the next few weeks in preparation for NARAM.
