Emma needs ☕️ and paying workFeb 9
Looking the empty core of this roll of Tamiya making tape (for painting models) and wondering how much of standard airframe diameters in #ModelRocketry were driven by thing like making tape rolls and commercial paper tubes.

Between my drive up to the Hudson Valley on Monday, and home again this afternoon, I made exactly 2.5 simplex contacts on 146.52, caught up on 2 episodes of #HamRadioWorkbench, and one episode of @therocketryshow

So overall I'd say not a bad commute😀

Building the #R2D2 flying model rocket. R2 drew first blood as I tried to whittle down some excess plastic with an E-Xacto knife.

The kit is from the 1970s and DAMN that plastic is tough! #ModelRocketry
