2" Midpower rocket built from mailing tube

This is one of those projects that seemed to take forever.  But eventually I got it finished.

Someone gave me some 2" mailing tubes, so I used one for the rocket's airframe.  The fins are surface mounted and topped with fiberglass as is the rest of the rocket.

The nosecone was turned from cedar. 

Overall, between the fiberglass and the nosecone, it's kinda heavy for a 2" midpower bird.  But it flies pretty good on F motors.  Still need to try a G in it.
