Not exactly but close enough.

The main thrusters for a Saturn 5 rocket. I made sure to stop by the Kennedy Space Center while i was in Florida back in April.

O awesome! That's a long way from Wasilla! My brother saw the space shuttle take off a couple times. I had a Revell model of the Saturn 5 rocket with the Apollo command module and LEM when I was a kid. I might have blown it up on the Fourth of July, too bad that model is a collectible now :o

I heard that rocket burned 12 tons of fuel per second on take off :!:

I'm trying to get my hands on one as we speak. And strange enough you mention it, i remember and was there during the Challenger launch. I just remember thinking that the fireworks really weren't that good and why they had set them off that morning. The rest of the day my mom and grandma were crying, i couldn't understand why except that the fireworks were that bad. Its still a sore subject for me,my family, and anyone who was there when it happened. Where were you?

OK MR. Crazy4coal.
I'll give it to you, even though it's aluminum half-round gutter installation on a great old barn, lol. Another one of my too obvious pics. I was called to install these and tried to talk the guy out of it. 6" gutters I had to custom order from the roofing place, not a common item. I had to make extensions on the rafters and install 1 x 6 fascia boards, and the old farmer insisted I not use off the shelf pressure treated wood! So I got some nice pine and he said it was too expensive. He asked for #2 pine which I got and then he looked at it like it wasn't good enough. He does have a carpenter bee problem, so he made me treat all the wood with 9% copper napthenate! Nasty smelly chemical.
Crazy thing is, I warned him of ice dams; and he has a back hoe and dump truck, he should have just pulled a french drain at the back of the barn. When it rains hard he gets water coming in under the slab. Metal roof too, he wants me to paint it, but I'm extremely reluctant to do that job.
