BMS/Alway Saturn V Build, Part 17, Escape Motor Shroud


You are supplied with a few extra escape motor shrouds. I would suggest making up a few and selecting the best one for your build.

After carefully cutting out the shroud, you might still have an uneven edge.






Lightly sand off any wide spots with 400 grit.


A dowel was sharpened and used to shape the shroud.
The shroud is tiny! I was able to form it on a fingertip.







Using very little glue, close and adhere the shroud sides.
Tweezers come in handy to hold the ends closed.

(This was not the shroud that ended up on the model. It was a bit rough.)
