Hi Yogi,

Yes, take down, and if want to change Pvc pipe sizes. Been thinking of trying 1" and will change to 1/2" for the smaller stomp rockets. Right now 3/4" is being used.

The ones with threads, look smaller inside than ones without, so decided to just use the slip in kind.

Also, with the slip togethers, can angle the pipe into the wind or breeze to adjust for windy days.

A 4-way would allow 3-launches at the same time, etc.

BTW-been telling everyone, "it's just a nervous twitch....".

Mike
