Nose cone and stuff

I finally figured out the nose cone- an oil change funnel. It seems to work pretty well, as I ran a piece of threaded rod down the length of the nose cone to give it some stability and a place to mount the shock cord.

This is what the rocket looks like all pieced together:


I also made a little container for the ejection charge:




I still need to attach the fins, make an engine mount, make a parachute, make engines, and build a launch pad. At this rate, it's looking like I will not be able to launch this weekend, there's just too much to do.
