I think I may have even flown it, too.

The payload section was a piece of BT-30 (I think).

Someday I may have to take it out an repaint it. I didn't use any sanding sealer/wood filler on the balsa parts because I repainted it 6-7 times with Testors bottle brush paints!

The whole rocket was BT-30. I bought a big piece from TT and built (or started) a bunch of the BT-30 birds. The only one I've flown was the Mark II.
