We were going to go out to the test site and static test the blue ball with a “solid” catalyst. (The FAR event was canceled due to 75mph winds forecast on Saturday as I was typing this.)

John Carmack sent me several catalyst styles, one kind was a pourable ring catalyst from cpilink.com It looks like the picture on the right here. So we had some stainless plates water jet cut by Thunderbird Water Jet to hold the catalyst rings, and we added a sintered stainless diffuser plate. and reassembled the motor.
