I once saw a guy completely eyeball a turbopump design and only have it be something like .3% off the simulated performance numbers. some dudes legitimately just have the “knack”.

I forever remain intensely jealous of those people.

I like things that go boom.

the ATF doesn’t like it when I tell people how to make their own firearms though. suffice to say… if you know how to build a rocket… you can build a shotgun, the laws of physics are the same, just on slightly different scales.

Allah ysalmak, akhi.

May your family be prosperous and happy.

haha; alas, no, I am not.

He did give me several ideas though. I’d be glad to call him a friend; were we ever to meet.

I build liquid rocket engines, and their fuel refinement systems; in a manner thats totally legal for normal (US) civilians.

for instance, did you know that your house’s natural gas line is usually ~80% (varies by municipality, lowest I’ve seen is 74%) methane by volume, and is actually shockingly easy to purify and pressurize into usable methane for a methalox cycle engine?

its even easier to make LOX (liquid oxygen), all you need is: air (in vast supply here on lovely Terra) literally any cooler design that gets down to -183C…( the Glifford McMahon cycle works; and you can build that at home), a fractionating column, (you can buy them off the internet, you’ll want metal, but glassware is still fine-ish as long as you account for thermal shrinkage…and never ever let it heat back up to room temp), a cryo-rated compressor (sold on ebay), and a dewar (also on eBay)?

PRAISE BE TO SPACE KING!

you can safely ignore. xD
