Estes Thor Agena Build Part 6 Engine Mount Fine Points




TIP: That inside glue tab can distort the final "round" of the nozzle shroud.
Sometimes you can sand a small flat spot on the ring that fits the raised tab better.

You won't have to sand off much!






After sanding the "flat" spot -
This shows a better fit of the inside glue tab against the 20/50 ring.






The glue fillet was applied at the 20/50 ring / nozzle shroud joint.

When the glue is wet, the shroud will be pliable.
I rolled over the seam where it looked like it was going out of round.
