Red River Rocketry Starliner DST, Part 6, Shroud Glue and Fillets




Before the shroud glue dries slide the lug in place and make sure it lays straight.

Remove the lug.

A small amount of glue was slid under the sides of the open slot where it touches the body tube.
Very little glue is needed.

With a clean dowel roll roll the corners of the open slot down onto the tube.

The inside shroud ring joint got a glue fillet.
It's too tight to get the glue nozzle or a finger in the small area.

Glue was applied drop by drop on the end of a rounded dowel.
Excess glue was picked up with a Q-tip.
