I had a Cato this past weekend in a custom rocket I built. The motor burned out the edge of the engine case and burnt off 2" of exposed MMT. I plan on using a hole saw and cut into the aft centering ring, go a couple of inches up into a good section of MMT, removing the burnt section putting a coupler outside of the MMT, and inserting a new section of MMT. Believe a 2.2 ebay switch band would work for the coupler as it needs to be outside of the motor mount and would support the new MMT section and connect to two pieces so I can put the boattail back on this rocket. I wanted to run it by you all to see if my thinking has a flaw.
