Steven Well-Known Member TRF Supporter Joined Sep 17, 2013 Messages 4,396 Reaction score 2,280 Oct 31, 2013 #16 Engine nozzles. The originals simply had the cast resin tops that were epoxied onto the X bracing frame and then bolted on. These have a thick walled tube glued into the inside with a 1/4" ply. plug for mounting purposes.

Steven Well-Known Member TRF Supporter Joined Sep 17, 2013 Messages 4,396 Reaction score 2,280 May 5, 2014 #20 I need to finish the Mercury Redstone from Sheri's, then I'll probably move on to this.
Steven Well-Known Member TRF Supporter Joined Sep 17, 2013 Messages 4,396 Reaction score 2,280 Dec 23, 2014 #21 An update on this rocket. I've purchased some detail parts for this for the CM and second stage.
Steven Well-Known Member TRF Supporter Joined Sep 17, 2013 Messages 4,396 Reaction score 2,280 Dec 23, 2014 #22 These are all 1/48th scale. Perfect for this Saturn V.
Steven Well-Known Member TRF Supporter Joined Sep 17, 2013 Messages 4,396 Reaction score 2,280 Dec 23, 2014 #23 These are parts from New Ware. I tack glued the upper radiator panels on the SM tube. Last edited: Dec 23, 2014
