FlisKits MMX Saturn V Build Part 8, Escape Tower


The escape tower is a small round plastic rod.
You have to drill a small hole for the rod to glue into.

The CM part of the nose cone is already pointed.
I decided to flatten the point slightly to make it easier to set the center hole.


A needle is slowly pressed in. Press a little and check to be sure the needle is straight before drilling any farther.

The instructions say the "tower" should extend only 3/16" above the tip.
That looked to be a little short. I made mine a bit longer.
