Transporting Bigger Rockets

While I deal with smaller, low power models, occasionally I have to transport something BIG.

I bought one of these neck rings if I ever needed to take a nap in my car.
I've found a second use for it.
A few years ago I had to take an Apogee Saturn V to the UPS Store to weigh in for estimated shipping charges. My home scale was too small.


The ring was placed around the body to lessen the chance of it rolling and protect the white body from the seat belts in the backseat of my car. It fit the 5 1/2" diameter body very well.
This ring has also been used for 4" diameter models.
Two rings (one at the front and one at the rear) would probably work best.

TIP: Before you buy a neck ring for rockets (or sleep), get one with stiff filler material. Some of them are so flimsy they offer no support at all.
