Semroc Defender Build Part 8 Centering Ring and Kevlar



I found it easier to center and line up the CT-KV-60 centering ring with pencil tick marks on the ring and body tubes below it.

It's very easy to glue this ring to one side so use some reference marks to keep it centered.



White glue was used to fill in the gaps at the top of the ring and body tube joints.

The Kevlar is knotted and fed through the gaps between the tubes. After gluing the gaps closed, I had to open a hole with an awl.






Just to be sure, I set the knotted Kevlar in some epoxy down the joint between the two tubes.
