I just got my self a kit for one of these gizmos, It's taken a while but I finished it the other day and it seems to work nicely
I've been a CAD user at work for quite some time so I thought it might be fun to have a machine that can make some bits and pieces
Here's a look at a CAD model for a Rocket airframe I drew up a while back.
Smuzz Kindly gave me a few rocket engines last year and I thought I'd better build an airframe to try some of them out.
Here's the first attempt Hopefully it will fly OK

“The knack of flying is learning how to throw your machine at the ground and miss.”
"When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your thoughts turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return." ~Leonardo Da Vinci
