Hey, thanks for listing EMRR on your links.. the SNAP feature is a bit dated, but cool.
Have you seen our new 2007 EMRR Challenge… it has a garbage component which I believe was your suggestion through a feedback to EMRR! Thanks for the idea… Now go participate and WIN!

Where is template for air rocket in Make 15?
It sure isn’t obvious from your makezine.com/15/airrocket site.

I thought it was interesting that your ICEE TRANSPORT looks a lot like the Semroc TAO ZERO.
So, which one came first?
As always, great website.
