It looks like your test turned out pretty well!
All that's involved is heat it up and quench in oil
Couldn't really sleep last night so looked around at things to do. Found an old light for the beacon, hooked up to a remote to allow switching on or off, need to work out where I'd put the switch now, and type of switch for when I get thrusters to rotate

Also found this cheap small screwdriver set....thinking I could remove the internals and use as hip/thigh pouch filler....maybe a med kit or toxin/ anti toxin tool kit


Also a small servo and a tiny motor with long screw ....hhmmmm wonder what I could use that for 🤔

Bit of clean up work around the range finder pivot point, the rf stalk is a little thick and prevents the cap sitting flush and the resin wasn't 100% flat. Filing flat to allow the stalk to move freely and also looking at installing a servo. I'd bought a low profile ones few years ago but didn't really get around to installing

Man, I love that little light in the beacon!
I got that off TDH years ago...I think it was one of JC27 kits...there are other flashing kits out there. You can get flashing LEDs now, not sure if they give the same look though. I've seen LEDs with tiny circuit on the anode or cathode leg that made them flash, can't find a tiny circuit board that made a LED flash...all cheap too
SO much cool stuff!
Really nice job!
Thanks Breyo.....hopefully more cool stuff to come  :laugh:....need to finish this stuff first

Fixed the taper and shortened the rear...could do with better polish....but I may try a anodising again, still needs fins added
Sort of thinking archery plastic vines...maybe colour indicates purpose. In the comic "twin engines of destruction" these were fired at a bounty...not explosives but tranquillisers

This is amazing man. Once you refine the process, you could make some good money selling these. Set you up a shop like MachineCraft Replicas  :like:

Thanks mate, definitely will need to refine. May be an option in the future.... 🤔 not sure how many would like Jodo rockets though  :laugh: need to look at finishing other stuff
had ideas of making these in 3 sections...steel and aluminium too
I'll try to may a rocket like this pic

Still can't think of the site it was on....called a merr-sonn mm7 or mm9 ...not much info
What would be other suggestions to look at making?
