Thor Able Carded Build Part 7 Upper Body and Conduits



The upper body separation point is above the B2 section.
Here's the pre-shaping the B1 shroud for gluing.








All the shrouds in this "kit" have internal tabs so the shroud seams edges butt up against each other.
You can roll a clean dowel over the seam to flatten it out.
This is the same method I used on the largest Estes Saturn V shrouds.




The conduit parts are formed to a semi circle down their length.
I ended up coaxing them around the small end of my diamond file.
The inset picture shows the cross section.
