Not much to look at yet
« on: Nov 27, 2009, 04:13 PM »
But the basic shape is there. LOTS of work to do still. Went to the wood shop and glued 2 large pcs of poplar together. Dad and I will turn that on the lathe for the rocket. Don't plan on the rocket to be 100% accurate, but close enough. I'll get pics of the turning as soon as we start. But here is the pack.

Very nice!!  Building a JP from scratch is tough but very rewarding when your done.

Looks like a solid start bro! It'll turn out great.  I know I don't have the 'nads to try and build a jetpack.

Thank you sir. Been sitting  in a corner due to work and well, honestly it made me mad. Didnt throw it up against a wall or anything... yet. Everyone will be gone at work in a few days but I am the lucky one to be there "just in case." It's gonna be dead. So I will prolly take it to work and do some work to it there.

hey' Alden Mortuus

  it's looking good try not to get to discouraged,
 in my experience any time you do a scratch of some thing so well know it can be a pain in the but, :(

  getting it to that really finished stage takes time and in the end,
 like Novall Talon said is very rewarding when your done so hang in there Vod' ;D
