You give him too much credit. Layne got the word when he went to the ER after the llamas took a bite out of him. He probably still has the medical report that says, "patient presented with a crenelated laceration to the flesh, presumably resulting from the dentition of a large ungulate..." and and been looking for a chance to use the word ever since.

Either that or he really likes old castles and such.

Well, there ya go!

Word of the day: Crenelations.

Excuse me, I have to cut some "crenelated " card stock templates. :wink:

Yup bona fide word right there. Cannot accuse the llamas of confabulation of vocabulary.

Capricious crenelations? Let's hope they don't caterwaul!

Great build thread as usual, and outstanding craftsmanship!

bradycros · May 10, 2013

Thank you for saying so. I enjoy reading your threads also.Your a rocket build'n machine!

bradycros · May 10, 2013

It's starting to look like a rocket.

I can't quite put my finger on it, but something seems a bit...off....

Looking really good, and you've added some great tips!

As usual you are showing us what it means to be a craftsmen. Well done. :clap:

cwbullet · May 13, 2013

I would say that is correct. Layne will this be a limited time production or a continued product?

The destruction tell you to cut out the centering rings and glue them to the extra sheet of card stock supplied with the kit. Then cut'em out again.

So I did!

I used a paper punch on centrering ring #3, because cutting those little holes would have been a real bugger with an X-Acto knife.

My curiosity to see segment 1 attached to segment 2 got the best of me and I didn't read the step that tells ya to weave and glue the washer used for ballast into segments 1 & 2 with a crenelated do-hicky. :facepalm:

But the attachmet of segment 1 to segment 2, minus a washer, was done really well! :grin:

First pic is what it's suppos'ta look like and the second pic is what mine looks like!

bradycros · May 13, 2013

So...

I traced out the washer onto the extra card stock that came with the kit and created my own Spacely Space Cogs.

The teeth were all bent up so the cogs will fit snuggly into the nose cone segments.

bradycros · May 13, 2013

The first corrective action will be to glue in one of the Spacely Space cogs.

bradycros · May 13, 2013

Then test fit the State of the Art Pemberton Technologies nose cone ballast.

Good solution!

Though, I think that's a sprocket, not a cog.

qquake2k · May 13, 2013

Boy, there's a lot to this little buggar!

bradycros · May 13, 2013

After the glue drys the second correction is to glue another Spacely Space Cog over the State of the Art Pemberton Technologies nose cone ballast.

This "washer sandwich" could actually work better then the original attachment. My flub may have turned out to be a blessing!

gdjsky01 · May 13, 2013

But now it weighs several milligrams more than it should :grin:
It may not perform as well...

I was thinking the same thing. This method is very secure, and no relying on glue holding to a washer.

I suspect both will work, this has the benefit of being a long-term robust solution. Or, build per the instructions, then add the cog after -- the nose taper will keep it from shifting forward, and the cog will make sure it doesn't come backwards.

The next task in the destructions calls for the removel of the fin template from the sheet of card stock.
