BMS/Alway Saturn V Build, Part 18, Shroud Forming and Tower

After the shroud dried it wasn't a perfect circle.
TIP: A dowel end was carved and sanded to a cone shape, matching the angle of the shroud side.
Set the shroud on the carved cone. With your fingertips, press down and turn the shroud against the dowel cone. This should mold and give the shroud a rounder shape.

Notice you are given an extra tower side. Only four are needed.

Don't simply punch out the tower sides. Use a new knife blade to free the sides cleanly.

Take your time - the final results will be worth the extra effort.

The tower sides are set at the center of the support piece edges. I marked the tower support sides before gluing on the tower pieces.

As the instructions say, the lower "Z" struts alternate - Z, S, Z, S.

A toothpick was used as a glue applicator. Small dots of glue were applied at the inside edges.

Here's the finished capsule and tower assembly.
