Tristan and I had a great time making his rocket for the space derby. After googling it to figure out how to make a rubber band motor we were off! (Who knew men are freakishly obsessed with this thing as we found out on many google sites) We shaved it down with a potatoe peeler and sanded, and painted and sanded again, tilted our wings at an angle for extra lift, oiled the rubber bands, and we were ready for race day! He won three out of three races and was first out of 29 rockets. Needless to say he was pretty excited, and thought it was pretty cool that my girl scout and grandpa learned skills came in pretty handy! We labeled it Mr. T as grandma nicknamed him at Disneyland. It was super cool!
