Finally started Rocket, almost.

[salty]

My Rocket has been patiently waiting for me to find the time, and the donor for a long time now.

Based in Herts, building it with my car mad 10yr old son. The idea being that he learns what goes on under the bonnet. And I get the sense of achievement in doing something that no-one thinks I can do.

Complete novice and probably doing everything wrong, I'll be recording the ups and downs on our website. It'll also be an exercise in him learning about website design, so for any of you with websites, please do link.

hi
looks like we are about in the same boat!!
I have had my rocket about 18 months and finally made a start on it today ;D
Managed to get floor done today,really pleased how it turned out!
Feels quite daunting after looking at all problems other people have had but determined to get it done as best i can.

hi bob,

Umm. It is daunting, tho I guess if it were easy everyone would have one. You have a start on me, so I'll hope for some hints & tips as you go along and I might catch-up eventually!
I think the advice is take it one step at a time.

Good luck
