Fantastic…. Thank You

They are responsible of any damage they may cause as we are. If I burn a field I am responsible, if I plow down cropswith a truck, I am responsible. That is the problem with a lot of people, they…   Read more»

Very good ideas. As said, I think if the land ownershad a spacific couple of people to complain to…Thatwould be good.It’s always nice to know someone is hearing You. Andaddressssssing problems.

Indifference is a good word to use.Are we dealing with cattle or horses at the north site? I to have been there, grew up on a farm. Horses are the worst at getting spooked, I doubt anyone will make headway…   Read more»

I agree that we need to do all possible to build the understanding and gain the “indifference” of the land owners. I choose that word well as they will most likely never be our friends. I live on property with…   Read more»

Bed time, more later. Wife is standing here……

I have to deal with a lot of land owners in my line of work.Each one has their own little pet projects that only a conversation with them will reveal. That in it’s self is time consuming, but a necessary…   Read more»

well from what one of the land owners told me when you go past the second fence to the north or when you cross the fence to the east you are on private property.I really think it will be hard…   Read more»

Warren, that is good counsel. We lost our last launch site – which was SUPERB – because a landowner thought we were “stampeding his cattle”. His allegations were crap, but there you have it. After that experience, I think if…   Read more»

I’m liking the idea of either or both:- Some folks volunteer to help out the adjacent landowners for a day here and there.- A gift for the landowners surrounding the north site.I’d vote we don something for good neighbor relations……   Read more»

I still think a small gift at Chistmas, thanking them for there hospitality, to the club. Even the one holding your rocket hostage. And allways ask permision to go on thier land.Or if you have alot of money, you could…   Read more»

Anything I can do to help.Also. Please let Us know when the launch starts, where is OK andnot OK. I’m not sure where it starts and ends.Land owners aways have to fight to keep land. Theywant it respected.PS. I would…   Read more»

Has anyone ever used High Temp Ez-lam? ACP sells it…. ?id love to learn this compression style(duct tape) fiber/or carbon lay up, gotta wait til Conway has a little seminar…….Jb weld I think has high temp stuff now too? (I…   Read more»

I’m sure James, Conway or Elvis (Eric) will correct me here, but there are essentially 5 or 6 basic core types in solid propellant rocket motors. The Bates Grain I’m sure you’re familiar with – a hollow core of even…   Read more»

I’ve flown a lot of minimum diameter stuff and flown K250s, K185s, and L330s and have never lost a fin. Aeropoxy is good stuff, but ALWAYS make sure your c-slot or moonburning core is oriented between, and not underneath, a…   Read more»

Batman, to clarify – for my part (and perhaps what others are suggesting?) I use JB Weld *only* for tacking the fins on. Not the fillets, and not for the actual wetting of any fabric 8OHere is my sequence:a.) JB…   Read more»

Rough the tube and fins up good! A well sanded surface goes a whole lot further then most think!In your case, you might consider the long cure (standard) JB Weld.Art
