Hey guys,

I've been to another forum with guys from the US who can buy good quality tools from sites there.

But me being a guy from the UK are there any UK sites that sell rocket making tool kits?

Any help woudl be appreciated:) :rolleyes:

Special tools are made to order by a friendly machine shop! Go find your local one and take them a drawing with dimensions. Stock tools seem to come from the states. Some things can be produced by motivating certain forum members with money!

Do be CERTAIN of what you want with drawings and dimensions, possibly if the material is important specify it with the drawing.

Don't know how advanced you are, and what you are planning to make, but many tools can be improvised.

To make just a few items, the proper tooling is just too expensive.

What sort of rockets are you wanting to make?
