Testors one coat lacquer. I love this stuff
It sure does. 13Ns shy of a full J. It would make an excellent booster motor for a 2-stage flight. I can't wait to see the photos you get of it. Don't forget to send me the K-1127 lift off shot you got for the website please.I can't wait to try the Loki J1026LC. Thing punches on and off it looks like.
Actually yes........ [click on it]

My basis for the different size PVC pipe, used on various diameter tubes, to pull the fillet
I tried to avoid Black friday. I failed in the most wonderful way. I've wanted a glass 2.6" kit forever...and here it is.
It's the most complete FG kit I've ever gotten. Sled, harness and all. It could be built as is...but there are a few changes I'll likely make. I wish it had welded eyebolts, and a kevlar harness. A third CR will make building it easier. I'll also likely make a NC av bay.

I'm considering ways to do the nosecone, and will likely order a couple of stepped bulkhead soonish, and add weld/forged eyebolts.
Today I got to work washing and sanding. Usually people give this a cursory mention while building. I've washed the parts in dishsoap and dried them, today I went back and sanded the CR's, bulkheads, and motor mount tube, then rewashed the hell out of everything with dishsoap again. Once it dries off I'll wipe it all down with alcohol, then sand the body tubes,fins, couplers and rewash those. It's currently below zero in my garage, and I've got no place inside suitable for sanding fiberglass. So while I'd love to do some more today, I can't feel my feet. ><
Plan is a BRB900 for tracking, an RRC3 for DD, and a Loki 38/1200 with a K1127LB or J1026LC. Or both.
That's what I was thinking of doing plus a little epoxy never hurts
Going to try to sand smooth

Just below the coupler
Just screwed it in
Painted it to match. I should have filled it before and sanded it smooth.
