Apogee Peak Of Flight Article Newsletter #306

My third article for the Apogee Peak Of Flight newsletter was published yesterday. You can see it HERE  Look for Newsletter #306. This article explains how to create that sharp paint line around the perimeter of a nose cone. The cover page features the Odd'l Rockets Corkscrew! The nose cone on the left is the finished nose cone used in the article. On the right is the nose cone from the Mini Honest John rocket currently being built on this blog. The Mini HoJo nose cone is a more complicated mask, there is three colors in the test round paint schemes. (The third color, a grey on the nose cone tip is yet to be masked and sprayed.) The Peak Of Flight article goes into much more detail on how to mask the nose cones than I'll be covering on this blog. So check the Peak Of Flight article for the best tutorial information.
