Mini Max

June 20, 2015 by Alan Leave a Comment

After church tomorrow I’ve got quite a bit of “work work” queued…so I snuck some family and hobby time in today. Part of the results:

Augie with the Estes Mini Max

 

The Mini Max is a classic Estes rocket (as is the larger original, Der Red Max)…and I will definitely take enough time off on Father’s Day so astronaut Augie can launch it…

P.S. This is the first “complete build” rocket I’ve done since Augie and I started this hobby.  Everything was white (with the exception of the naturally-colored balsa fins)…and nothing snapped together or was otherwise simple.  Sanding. Gluing. Rounding.  Air brushing (first time).

Having said that, Estes still says it was only a skill level 1. 🙂
