Thank you guys. The Starbucks I go to has opened up to 50% seating now and I've jumped all over that. Been bringing this back to work on and everyone's happy to see the the rocket and I again. My son got me a gift card for the coffee shop for $20.00. I told him it was worth a million! He knows what the coffee shop does for me. Such a simple gift can bring a 61 year old to tears. That's the stuff of life.

This thing has seen an extraordinary amount of attention. Oddly enough, women seem to find this an interesting topic. So many people want to see this fly. The manager Terri will allow me to post the launch date and place when ready.

Later on in the week, I'll be showing the painting of the S-1VB Aft Interstage. The hardest piece to mask. I'll be using a fine tip Sharpie pen for the outlining of the horizontal sections, then fill in using a Testors black paint marker. This will be the base coat followed by three coats of spray paint.

That is a huge model Saturn V. Either that or your car has a really bad ass exhaust on it routed really badly through the passenger seat!
The detail you’re putting into this behemoth is fabulous.
Keep up the great work
