5 3/8 inch tube fin rocket. Or-Tee

Originally this project was to be a six tube fin rocket. I tried to cut one fin at an angle similar to the Kraken and failed. So it became a four fin rocket. The body tubes are 5 3/8 inch phenolic with two layers of Kevlar and two layers of fiberglass. It was originally to fly on 98mm N motors but I had to sell my 98 stuff and converted this to 75mm. Besides I was unsure about going mach on an N motor. Any way here's some construction pictures so far. I was prevented for some reason adding pics to an album so they are on dropbox.

The tube fins are bolted in by metal strips and bolts.
The rocket is just about done. I have to tighten the tube fins then glue in the motor mount.
I'll epoxy and foam fill the rear inside before gluing in the rear rings. The front rings will be glued in first then the rear.
About the only thing left is really the nose cone that I just started.

I'll add some more as I go along.

By the way, Or-Tee stands for orange tubes. I've done most of my tube fin rockets that way. B-Tee, R-Tee to mention a few.

What motors are you planning to run, and how fast do you expect to go?
