Hey guys, I'm new to this forum, so be nice
I'm just wondering, when I would build rockets of my own someday, I am dreaming of something like building multistage models of historic rockets such as Redstone, Gemini-Titan, and the Saturn 5, and the motors would also be scratch-built (sugar and potassium nitrate). So how do we build body tubes for such rockets? Cardboard tubes or something, with the designs painted over them? And how about the engine mount? It's better if you tell me your answers in procedures, maybe with an example. For an example, if any, I would like an example of an actual rocket, not a fictional one. Thanks.
