Dr. Zooch Saturn V F1 Engines Step 10 Part 6
The instruction drawings show six wraps. But with the recommended 8 1/4" length I was only able to make five thread wraps.
This picture shows four wraps, getting ready for the fifth and last wrap.
If you didn’t use a lot of glue on the string, you’ll be able push it in better alignment after all five wraps are in place.
In the picture I used the side of the toothpick as a spacing guide.
It fit between the wraps and helped make them all more evenly spaced.
This is the back of a finished wrap showing the angled wrap areas.
On the other side, the wraps are straight across and even.
Well, as even as you can make them.
I’m using the tip of the toothpick to make final adjustments to the band spacing. The glue is drying now and moving the string gets harder to do.
