Semroc Saturn 1B, Build, OOP #KS-1, Part 9, Escape Tower Tail & Cone Fix
The low end of the escape tower nose and tail cone was chipped and very rough. I probably wouldn't have included this part in the kit.
A bead of thinned CWF was rolled on the edge using a Q-tip.
This was sanded with 220 grit on a block. I had to go back and do more filling and sanding.
Here you can see the sanded and re-shaped line of CWF around the bottom edge.
The two pieces can be cut with a fine tooth razor saw.
Build time this post: 0 Hours, 45 minutes
Add to the build time: 45 minutes for scanning all the fins, shrouds and nozzles
30 minutes to assemble the 12" capsule parachute
Total build time so far: 11 hours, 00 minutes
