Thank you Jack. One way is better than not. I’m pretty sure someone will be able to affect the return.

Seaboundsupply.comAccepts PayPal. I buy eye nuts from them. Hard to find them on their site due to their mediocre search tool, but they are cheap. Search under “eye”. Shipping isn’t cheap, so order ten or more. Each one is under…   Read more»

Try Timberline Fasteners in Commerce City. If worse comes to worse there’s always McMaster Carr.

If I cannot find what I am seeking locally, I hit the net. I start with “Google” and then go to the ”shopping” tab. I might put in here forged eye bolts or 3/4″ forged eye bolts. You should also…   Read more»

It is a 3/4″ eyebolt. I am building the GL Liberty 4. I want to put the K1440 that I won as a “Never Ending Raffle” to go use. This is one of my many long term projects; I will…   Read more»

McGuckins has them, but obviously you’ll pay! It IS McGuckins after all.If you’ve got other stuff to get, it might be worth it to do a McMaster-Carr order.-Ken

What size are you needing? I have a solution that works very well for single point of retention.

My Ace does not carry them, but we do have a Fastenal in Loungemont. I will check them out this week.Thanks Bear

Some ACE Hardware stores have them, and they can get them for you. I know, because I am in the wholesale website where the stores buy from the warehouse that is down in Colorado Springs. You can also find them…   Read more»

It’s always fun to see these.

Awesome! It was really so GOOD to be back out on the range! I’ll get weekend details posted as soon as possible but know this, Saturday was a but a puff of wind compared to Sunday’s blow.

Awesome – thanks Jack. We’ll find someone for the return trip. Worst case scenario, I’ll tow it back on Sunday.

Now changed to do the TARC launch on Sunday. We’ll be meeting at Dawson outside the gym at 11:00 a.m. If you can, show up. Thanks.

Agree with Joe on using the tracking a few times to work the kinks out. I put up the Miranda 3 times on L1 motors with the tracking and never needed it. So I was comfortable with its functionality when…   Read more»

I’d go ahead and do that if I were you. I’m a Big fan of the KISS principle but also believe in punishing the sky. If you’ve got the tracking capabilities, use them a few times when they might not…   Read more»

Jack,It was your thread regarding L2/plan B that sort of lead me in this direction. My Arial has 5 L1 launches and nary a scratch. Perhaps the gps should be added to a J launch, but so far I have…   Read more»

Dave,I’m firmly planted on the KISS side of the fence. I went with a baby-J in my PML Miranda (and dog collar) for my L2 before I even understood all of the nuances of DD. That Aerial is almost identical…   Read more»

Pistons rule for keeping things from scorching. I’ve had blow-by with chute protectors scorch a few, but I figure that is somewhat inevitable in the end.

Thanks Tim, I thought I might need a bit of a air cushion to help push the recovery gear out. Time to ground test like you said. Mark

8) jeffro,It should be cool. I have a few ‘tight fits’. First, ground test to get the charge right. Make sure the chute protector is a good one! I have had blow-by the protector scorch a chute. When room is…   Read more»
