Dr. Zooch Vanguard Eagle Build Part 37 Engine Bells




The engine bells are glued in place, centered behind the SRBs.






Drilling the centering ring for the rear vent holes took a little bit of work.

I first used a sharp awl to mark the center and to make something for the drill to center itself in.





To start the hole, I used a smaller drill than the recommended 1/8" drill.
The 1/8" drill was used for the final hole size.

I covered the front of the body tube with the palm of my hand and blew into the engine mount tube. My breath did come back out through the engine bells!
