We used to drink Towne Club soda out of glass bottles.

Bought a used truck from a pest control company when I was in college, and they didn’t remove any of the decals before I took it. Parked a lot of places for free.

Sceptre monitors are good. Have a 55" we’ve been using as our main television for 8 years without issues. Have a 32" as my computer monitor as well, about 6 years so far. They just work, no bullshit smart features.

I’ve been using Solid Edge. Siemens offers a free community edition that works great if you want to create models for 3d printing. I originally used FreeCAD, and while it works, had problems with models breaking when trying to make changes. Solid Edge is much more professional, easy to use, with pretty much all the features available that you could want. The only drawback for me is that it only runs on Windows. Tried going back to FreeCAD since it has the new 1.0 release and will run on Linux, but it felt too awkward. Now I have a dual boot system with Windows solely to run CAD software.

Commenters at the end of the article agreed with you on that. Probably better off buying a launcher and some engines instead. Then create your own designs with some CAD software. If I had a printer back when I was 12, printing up my own cones and fins would have been great.
