SRS Imagination Part 1

I was gifted four spent SCUBA tanks which was what I needed to build something I've been looking forward to for years: A Paul Bunyan Class Rocketship.

SRS Imagination Part 2

I began building this massive rocketship model in 2015. Five years later it's time to start finishing what I started: drilling more holes, adding hand-modified hinges, and most notably building a complex and detailed command module starting with a vintage coffee can.

SRS Imagination Part 3

This is the third chapter documenting the epic construction of the John-Henry Class Rocketship named the SRS Imagination. Learn about the portal, the landing gear, the finish work, and the rocket nozzles.

SRS Imagination Part 4

I've been spending the last few months working on a 60-inch model of a Rocketship named the SRS Imagination, although the project was actually started years ago. This chapter covers the construction of the control panel, the battery harness, the Explorer's home and the plaque, and also contains an ode to iron metal shavings.

SRS Imagination Part 5

This is the fifth chapter in the odyssey of constructing the SRS Imagination, a John-Henry class rocketship. Learn about the electronics – the lights, the switches, the power and the ability to control everything from a smartphone.

SRS Imagination Part 6

This is the sixth and final chapter in the odyssey of constructing the SRS Imagination, a John-Henry class rocketship. Read about the proposal, the construction of the Explorer, enjoy detailed photos of the rocket in its completed state, and learn of the hidden easter-egg surprise.
