It's time to build another model rocket! Ken looks at his next build, 1977's Space Shuttle Flying Model Rocket by Estes #ModelRockets #Geek Archeology

A model of the starship Enterprise, with some of the decal film in a container, and actual decals drying on a mat in front of the model.
Continuing work on the Enterprise. Took the advice of Damon Agretto and bought some Microscale Industries “Liquid Decal Film”. It’s designed to help very old decals maintain their cohesion when you put them in water. #StarTrek #ModelRockets
Grill-like decals being applied to a model of the starship Enterprise.
Slow progress on the Enterprise as I add the 50-year-old decals.
As I mentioned before, these decals tend to disintegrate on contact with water (and you need water to apply them) so … I’m going slowly. Very slowly. #ModelRockets
A side view of the Starship Enterprise, with its red-tipped warp nacelle and gold deflector array visible.
Progress on the Enterprise! I'm almost done with painting the fine details. I've got a few small tiles to paint and glue to the ship (little nervous about those) and then the main event:
Attempting to apply 50-year-old water-based decals to the ship. #StarTrek #ModelRockets
12 pieces of small rectangular cardboard on a cutting board.
That moment when you're building a model rocket, and you realize, umm, you've got extra pieces... #Rocketry #ModelRockets #Enterprise
Slow-but-steady progress on my Enterprise model rocket. I didn't like the original base coat (too dark and too gray) so I bought a can of Testor's Light Aircraft Gray paint.
I'm liking it.

The ship's being supported by a newspaper-wrapped wooden dowel, held in place by the Star Trek Adventures rulebook. #StarTrek #ModelRockets
A model of the Enterprise, painted gray, floats next to the Star Trek Adventures rulebook (being used as a counter weight).
As I was working on the Enterprise last night, I realized I had primed it, but hadn't put on the "spaceship gray" base coat. Today, I ran out & grabbed paint from my local hardware store to fix that. #StarTrek #ModelRockets

Some times you find shit from your childhood and wonder how you kept all your digits and eyes

A big orange model rocket on the DIY rail system ready to launch. It sits on dirt in the middle of a large field near Santa Fe Dam in Southern California.
I would have enjoyed a more silent sunday but I had a pretty good #NoisySunday launching #modelrockets with the ARC team I coach. They did pretty well this year. Probably not well enough to get to nationals but I'm proud of their progress since last year.
Beautiful day for a launch 🚀

Still in the box!!!
Because D-12 engines were way too expensive and had enough black powder in them to blow off Bob’s and Ron’s fingers in a single botched launch.

Always love seeing old Sit & Spin listings. So many great shows there with so many wonderful bands. Like especially that one on the 14th 😍 #marsaccelerator #damienjurado #paulmumaw #harveydanger #severnapark #thecombovergroup #idiotflesh #phineasgage #rubewaddell #modelrockets #cockeyedghost
Spring is just around the corner and that means more rocket builds! #modelrockets #3dprinting
