Today I want to epoxy my plies onto my rocket for real. My best friend is coming over and I think he will be my camera man while my hands are sticky with epoxy. First I want to relate what my RC airplane friend,Ben, just experienced doing vacuum bagging. He and I are getting into it at the same time. He introduced me to his RC build group and I picked up a lot of tips. Ben's first attempt left a little to be desired. The good news is he can throw the first vertical and horizontal stabilizers he made away and it won't hurt his airplane. When applying plies to your rocket it's all or nothing. If you want to start over you have to order a new sustainer tube and fins and begin again. I can't afford that. I want to fly at LDRS so failure is not an option. Hence preparation.
