Black Widow

My name is Eric Spain and I live in Rhode Island.I have been involved with rocketry for 2 years and I love it! My Descon #9 entry is called t' Black Widow. Blimey! Begad! My rocket is 6 feet tall and 2 inch diameter. Ya scallywag! Avast, me proud beauty! T' coupler be t' same type o' tube as t' body tube and is located in t' middle. Avast, me proud beauty! It is black with yellow/black Monokote. Ahoy! T' nose cone is a piece o' balsa that I made on a drill press. Aye aye! It has a 29 mm mount and was first flown on a F-22. It has 4 9 inch long 1.5 inch diameter tubes that were cut from Estes Mean Machine Body Tubes and were painted yellow.It gives t' rocket a nice Sci-Fi look. Blimey! T' body tubes were fiberglassed, matey, shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat, sanded, matey, and painted.
