DFR Tech. Delta II Build Part 15 Engine Mount Gluing


I used a wide tip permanent marker to darken the inside tube that'll be exposed once the engine mount is in place.

I only had to blacken a little over 1/4" in.

Keep the pen inside the tube and off the white outside, lower edge.



I decided to line up the engine hook with one of the SRM supports.






A rounded dowel end was used to apply a white glue fillet, drop by drop.
The dowel end smoothed out the fillet.

Any glue outside of the smoothed fillet bead was picked up with Q-Tip.

Applying the fillet to the top ring was a little harder. It took a long dowel to apply the glue around the upper centering ring from the top.
