7500lbs of thrust is weak. Wink Maybe we should just tie our lines to the rocket?

On another note; that -AN fitting they have on the side is huge! Looks like -32 or something.

Army Navy fitting. They are blue and red.
Any cool toy has to have AN fittings!

That's the first youtube clip that's done justice to the 12" sub I got sitting under my desk.

No b/c pure methane is odorless. Bacteria make sulfides in the form of H2S in a reducing swamp environment etc. And H2S smells like shit at ppb.

I know you have them on your crazy thing, huh Mark! Thumb's Up

I personally don't like the aluminum, blue/red ones anymore... We use the nickel plated ones more often. Look a little more low-key.
