Busy, Busy, Busy at Odd'l Rockets


I've been busy printing decals, cutting tubes, printing instructions, bending springs and vacu-forming jet canopies.

The past two weeks has included production of:
14 Heavy Duty Engine Mounts (HDEMs)
12 Adeptors
6 Break-Away kits
9 Birdie kits
14 Sputnik kits
8 Cyclone kits
19 Single Raise Springs
7 Raise Spring 10 packs
10 F-16 kits
13 F-104 kits
36 F-18 kits

This may not seem like a lot compared to a big vendor, but it's just me!
It took over 10 years, but here I am with sometimes more work than I can handle.

Odd'l On My Facebook Page!


Look what showed up on my Facebook page!
I was on the Apogee website yesterday to check the kit availability. When I see it is low I make up more kits or make out a parts order.
It's great to see Apogee is promoting the Odd'l Fighter Fleet!

Sirius Rocketry Order

Here's just a small part of a big kit order from Sirius Rocketry.
All the couplers and tubes in the re-designed Odd'l Break-Away kit are hand cut.
These are longer than the available 1" couplers. At 1 1/4" long the segmented rocket stands straighter on the launcher.



This is only 11 sets from the 25 kit run I put together.
That's a whole afternoon of measuring, sanding and cutting.
I wore out a few razor blades in the process.
