I am a self-confessed space nut who is lucky enough to find work in his chosen interest. I teach a Middle School Aerospace elective and am constantly in search of new aerospace vehicles to build with my students. Kudos to Mike B. and John J. for their stomp rocket models - they're what drew me here. I learned how to build the launcher at a NASA workshop last fall and have launched the Ares stomp rocket with my students - a "blast" for all involved!

Welcome aboard!

Sure is fun launching them, isn't it?.

Best regards,
Mike Bauer

Welcome aboard. There are many free models of the Aerospace genre here and in the links. If you like to teach kids about about about space, link up with (Stump Rocket) Yogi, who will chime in soon enough to give you his welcome. Enjoy and see you around in the forums.

A huge welcome to you.... You must be in HEAVEN !!! There's a few SPACE NUTS here, even i have a slight interest in the subject :p O.K... alot of interest. Some guys here i am sure could build a 1:1 scale S-V if only they had the permissions required - not from NASA - goes higher than that.. their loved ones :D Great to have you here, you are in very good company

Welcome Brad! And thanks for the feedback - after all, that's the only reason I do this (that's my story, and I'm sticking to it ...)
Looking forward to you and your students' future adventures.
