Urgent -
1) I Need a 38mm threaded forward closure for March 7 launch. I have the rest of the hardware, otherwise I won't be able to launch my cradle rocket "Gates of Heaven" on 3 J's. I have one (see pic), need another. I can come pick it up. UPDATE: ED Dawson is going to provide one
2) I also need 3 hot ignitors made up that will fit into two 38mm J350W's and one 54mm J415W. The goal is to have the J350's in the cradle fire simultaneously on the launch pad and the J415 will fire 3 seconds afterwards during boost.
Mike, I probably have one of these closures - call me or email me at john dot wilke at cpsagu.com
Mike, you don't want to use one of my igniters... they burn at 2000-4000 degrees. 😈 Should fit the 54mm, I'll bring some. You can test one before launch. And what's this about AT threaded forward closures!? I DIDN'T KNOW THEY EXISTED... TIM!!!
They are Not Aerotech or Dr. Rocket but Rouse Tech/Monster Motor closures. Tapped forward closures so one can install a forged eyebolt type thing to hook the stretchy stuff to and then that is linked to some other solid point in the tube. 😉 Now you know why I don't write build it articles. I might know what I'm supposed to be doing but I can't explain it. 😳
Yet I understand what you're saying... you see, we all become of one mind... which is scary... 🙄 I just realized that Mike needs secondary ignition for staging, not primary, which is what these are for. I may have to find time to experiment using a commercially available e-match. Hmmm...
I called and apologized to Mike, but I won't be there tomorrow. I have a job interview Monday, and I'm going to prepare for it over the weekend. Wish me luck!

Go get 'em Bruce! Find anything you can on the company, products, and their competition. That's something that I picked up early on was to let them know how much you know about them and what YOU CAN DO FOR THEM. In this market, the companies hold all the cards. Show them you've got a few aces up your sleeve.

You got it, Ken! Plus, I still have your 29mm air frame and will get it to you at least at MHM. 😉
Mike, now that this resolved, I'm going to hijack this thread 😀
That's one heck of a trophy collection you have there. IMA and what else????? What racing? Looks like some flat track, but I don't have my glasses on. 😳
See you tomorrow if you are still up and about reading this....
Greg
What Mike racing? And what else? Greg, you won't believe it, but it's true!
😉 Night!
