AGM-28 Hound Dog... a Semi-Scale Scratch Build

Much like my Phaser, this rocket pushes the stability envelope.

Motor is in the lower pod, so it's technically correct. 29mm Power, Rear Eject Motor Pod Parachute design.

Point Blank.... a Semi Scale Scratch Build

Stumbled upon this on the internet today. It's a hand launched VTOL missile that's about 3 feet long. It has an X-Wing configuration for the fans.
Here's a link to the specifics of the VTOL: POINT BLANK

The scaled down version features a BT-204 body, rear eject and a 29mm motor.

 Payloader - HVY....  A Scratch Build

Another rocket inspired by the artwork of Lucas Green.

29mm Powered, Rear Eject
 


Drawing Set Rev 00
 





2026-04-21 Nose Cones and Tube

Fabricated the (4) Nose Cone pieces and cut the BT/C-60 Tube.​
The plan:​
Cut the Nose Cone Ballast,​
Insert into the Upper Body Block,​
Glue the Upper and Lower Body Nose Cones to the Upper Body Block,​
Once dry, sand the bevel into the Sub-Assy using my table top disc/belt sander.​

Switching gears on this project. This rocket is similar to a rocket I built in August of last year, Destroyer HVY-PD.​
I'm going to take the work I've done on this Nose Cone Sub-Assembly, and build the Phaser... A Scratch Build
