On the the second page (fifth paragraph) there is a line of copy left from a earlier draft of the instructions. You are reminded: "And the only painting you had to do was the black band." There is no painting of a black band at the base of the capsule like on the larger BT-60 based Redstone kit.
It's suggested you can rub the lead of a pencil along the exposed white paper edges of the wraps. I decided to do this before gluing them in place. Sometimes it's hard to get a pencil tip in the seam between two wraps.
The recovery compartment wrap was penciled along the edges, formed and glued. Here it is in place.
The antenna fairing was formed round over over the sharpened end of a dowel. It's small and would otherwise be hard to get round without rolling it over this type of form.
