Wildman Second Stage Booster

My Wildman rocket has flown several times now even to as high as 10k+.  Now I'm adding a second stage booster to it.  I hope to launch the first two stage high power in 2007.  I will detail the coupler construction when I get those parts.  The one in the foreground of the first photo is a loaner from Tim Lehr, designer of the Wildman rocket, while I did the construction.  The construction was done just as the original Wildman with injected West System's epoxy with carbon fiber filler.  There is a small copper conduit for the igniter to run down from the upper AV bay to the 2nd stage motor.
