Semroc Baby Orion Build Part 4 Engine Mount




With that nozzle in place, ther'll be very little room for movement of the engine hook end.
I cut off some of the bent end to make it easier to slide an engine in.





For now, the engine hook was taped in place for positioning.

The notched 5/20 ring was glued flush with the end of the engine mount tube.



The shroud was slid down from the top.
The shroud seam was positioned down one side of the engine hook.

After the shroud was in position and against the 5/20 ring, I realized I'd left off the Kevlar.
The end of the hook was raised with a wedge shaped dowel and the loop was set under the upper bend of the engine hook.
