Any advice on where to find a missing styrene part from this Mercury Atlas kit? My kit is missing half of a vernier stabilizer motor (molded styrene). Any advice on which part of Rocketry Forum to post such a parts request?

This place is usually fine. Lots of veterans here have stuff lying around. Maybe try the Scale section? Low-Power or Mid-Power work too.

If you can’t find it here, you may want to try Ye Olde Rocketry Forum. They focus more on vintage stuff.

I also found 3D print files here, if that’s acceptable for you.

That 3D print idea is a good one. Might be able to use a local hobby shop or community center to squirt the part out. Thanks!

Here's what I'm looking for: the stabilizer thrust motor. In my kit, one of the two parts needed to make a complete motor is a mismatch: I have two halves of the left side of the motor, and no matching part for the right side. (Just a mistake by whoever packed the kit at Estes). I am looking for the corresponding right side to the left side I already have:

(attached photo)

You see I have one completed motor, and the two "lefts" for the remaining motor. I need the "right" half of that motor. If anyone has a lead on where I can find a spare right motor half, I'd be grateful. Thanks!

(second attached photo-- parts diagram) I need the circled part. Will swap my extra "left" -- Ha.

First attempt with the public library: the 3D print filament created a tangled mess using the 3D file....trying to find out more on how to print it correctly.

It might be better to create a dedicated build thread and leave this one for those looking to buy. Just my two cents.
