It looks like a good, simple, sturdy rocket for long accurate shots. Plus you don't really need any machines like mills or lathes. I like this design, may build one.

i found that all you really need in life is a dremel :)

Heh.

Dremels are complete garbage for serious material work.

Try drilling through metal with one :P

They're nice for small scale stuff thats not too hard though.

You try with a different browser? Or try opening the file with a different program, like "MS Paint" instead of "Windows Picture and FaxViewer" for example.

To address the 'technical' issue...

I do not know what the hell is going on. It used to be that you could simply select the picture, and it would open a new window, or tab and the picture would be displayed in its 'full', uncompressed state. Now for some wacked ass reason it wants you to DL the images... I think Ill talked to PC about it once, but Ill bring the issue up again. If your anything like me having to DL every damned picture someone hosts on SF gets annoying, fast.

thats really cool and very simple you got any pics of the actual ammo maybe some damage pics?

im probally going to make one of these, thats a good idea and they can be adapted to different size barrels, im gonna make a small one to fit a .5" barrel

oh one more thing, what did you use for the fins, im thinking thin cardboard from a 12 pack of sundrop or something like that should work, or maybe just paper?

ill see about getting some pics of my actual ammo, and i did shoot an old stop sign my friend had, put a good dent in it, but it wasn't rounded over or sharpened just flat.

for fins i've used simple copier paper and for one more of my designs i've used 12 pack cardboard, my secret to the fins though was that i laminated them with scotch tape for added durability and strength
