Any model rocket people here?

[Scyry]

I just got back into model rockets for the first time in about 10 years. Haven't built any since I turned 16, truck took all my income at that point. Anyways, since going to college and moving out my Mother sold all my old stuff. I had this slick little gadget that held the tube and fins in lace while the glue dried. There was center platform that flat fin guides attached too, in the basic 3 or 4 fin postions. Then you clipped the fins to them and let the glue dry. I have been searching the web trying to find something similar, but haven't found any yet. Anyone know of a similar product or a good place I should search? I am not into anything high-powered or advanced, just messing around with basic Estes kits and modifying them. Anyways thanks in advance.

I got tired of plain rockets, so I modified the little CO2 cars to hold a D-size rocket engine... The stories that ensued... Anyways sorry byt the rockets I built had fins pre attached, so don't know where you can get one. Try Hobby Lobby.

I got that one, thanks though. It is not the greatest. The closest I have found is THIS, but the guy wants $129 for the whole set. I used to have a plastic one that was similar and I picked up for maybe $15. No one seems to have a clue of what I am talking about though. I'll probably end up using the machine shop here at work some day to mak me one similar to the one above.

Heck it's only money. Your burnin money every time you fire one off. What's a little more?

Haha, I bought 5 rockets, a launch pad, 6 engines and am at $60 vs $129. I understand why it is priced that high. Just not sure I am "that" into rocketry again yet.
