Spool Rocket Build Part 5 Motor Mount and Lug Hole Position



When you get close to the correct diameter, 220 grit wrapped around an engine casing can help sand the hole large enough to fit the motor mount tube.




Dry fit the motor mount assembly and check the fit of the tube and centering rings against the CDs.
No Epoxy yet!




A hole is drilled in both CDs to allow for the launch rod. I didn't think a launch lug would be needed, the launch rod would simply go through two holes, one in each CD.

I marked the lug hole position with a marker.
Next post - alignment and drilling the lug hole.
