You want to laminate fiberglass around the tube? If so you will need a laminating epoxy resin. A quick setting, but good epoxy laminating resin I’d recommend is West System. The slow hardener will give you at least 25-30 minutes which should be more than enough time for a small tube. If it is a...

So I managed to find the old price for the kit itself at $119.95, damn this thing was cheap back in the day lol. I have a list of all other parts that I purchased to make it as is. Mariah 54 Kit: $119.95 2g motor case: $70.01 Tailcone closure: $54.15 Pro 54 plug adapter $19.60 Exentions...

a valid point, I’ll get some more photos later, the only mod I did was Implement an eyebolt to have better assurance the shock cord will be attached instead of using the wooden dowel as the anchor point. Also this served as the anchor point to attached smaller grain motors.

I’m surprised no one jumped on this right away. I need some funds as soon as possible. If you need any more info about the rocket, please let me know.

Its 54mm, but you can adapt it down for 38mm.

This was made by Giant Leap Rocketry and it is the very first few that started out with the magna-frame tubing that is similar to Blue Tube.

Didn’t think this posted lol, connection was bad :P

Yes of course, it is the complete kit all built.

I’d never thought it’d come to this, but I am in a difficult situation that hopefully will go away soon, but for now I am selling my Mariah 54. I will be throwing in a 2g casing from Cesaroni and the mounting extensions. Here are a few more images of the beautiful design behind this bird...

Hey there Tony, in the end it will indeed be stupid expensive even for the glass version. To put it short, the glass tube would be around the same price as a wildman’s carbon tubes and the carbon versions would be even higher than that like 25% more. Here is a picture of the two tubes. One is...

I will eventually get one made to test out and get pictures going. However, after making some carbon tubes for Adrian A using dry UNI, I was able to get an awesome quality finish that is just easily noticeable in comparison to a filament wound tube. Not going to lie though, I can’t find a...

Hey guys, I wanted to see if anyone would be interested in a tube like this. They will be more expensive since the S-2 glass is pricey and yes they will be sanded smooth. PM if interested

Paging Adrian A, check your inbox please.

What diameter size? Also yes I can make them convolute. In fact I am looking to going back and doing this again since they always turned out the best. These are few examples of my rolled tubes. They were always consistent and are a lot stronger than the filament wound tubes.

I’m experimenting on trying to get a decent result, it all depends on the quality of the shrink tubing to be able to compress enough to squeeze the excess resin. The one I tried from Dunestone applied a good amount to a prepreg layer, however it bonded to it, which I really don’t want that.

I was curious how this would work with prepregs. I’ll have to order one and see how it turns out. I tried Dunestones shrink tubing, but it bonded to the tube. It was very similar to mylar. This shrink tubing is different material so I am eager to see how it will work out. Would finally be...

Interesting shrink tubing, how easy would you say it was to remove it from the cured tube?
