With the help of people like Dr. Glass, I have finally done my first body tube glassing. Thanks Dr. Glass! :)

I received an Estes Sure Shot kit for my birthday. The Sure Shot is an A-C rocket, but I craved more power. So I rewired it... :) I put this rocket on rocksim and made a few <b>adjustments</b>. Anyway, since I will be adding a 24mm motor mount capable of up to F flights, I thought it important to glass the body tube. And so that is what I did. And it came out really good. Thanks again Dr. Glass.

...more to follow on the story of <b>Long Shot</b>.
 
Actually, my first glassing job was better than the two next ones...

Since then I didn't have the chance to glass more than a few centering rings. They were made from cardboard, but supposed to be used in interchangeable MPR MMTs. Work fine to date.
