Not sure how to describe this, but my 6" diameter 11' long FG rocket, which uses shear pins and rivets to hold the 4 pieces together (including NC) is a bit wobbly when it's all assembled. When I hold it vertical, if I lean it one way or another, I can feel a bit of a wobble as the pieces settle at different angles, even with the shear pins and rivets installed.
1. Is this fine/normal? Or,
2. Is the solution just to use masking tape to get closer to a friction fit, then install the shear pins?
This is the rocket https://wheelerl3.wordpress.com/ I'm very nervous for this weekend and just checking over everything! Site's not quite done yet.
Thanks,
