Rocketry Tool of the Month - Dental Spatula - LAST WEEK!!

Our August Tool-of-the-Month is something we had made specifically for us. It is a dual use tool that you will find exceptionally useful in your rocketry projects. One end of this tool features a finely-crafted dental spatula, ideal for mixing and precision application of adhesives (like RocketPoxy), filler putty, or thinning out wood filler with water. You'll find that it mixes everything thouroughly and quickly, especially if you are using small amounts like you typically use in rocket construction. Since this tool is stainless steel, clean up is a breeze. You can wipe it off immediately after use, or let the adhesive harden and simply scrape it off with a hobby knife.

On the other end, you'll discover a specialized scraper or chisel, engineered to remove excess materials, smooth out surfaces, and refine intricate details on your rocket model. It is razor sharp, and can be sharpened if it become dull.

This dual-functionality makes it an invaluable companion during assembly and finishing stages of rocket constructin, enabling you to achieve professional-grade results every time.

While you can buy it separately, you can have this tool free when you order $75 worth of other merchandise before August 31st. Visit this link for additional instructions to claim your free dental spatula.
