Estes Blackhawk #2053 Build, Part 7, Gluing The Mount & Tubes




Again I used some 220 grit wrapped around a casing to open up the side tube hole.


A dry fit and tracing around the tube joint with pencil. 

A glue line was set on the pencil line and the tubes joined. 
Double check the alignment before the glue starts to set up.




Like on the old Estes Trident -
TIP: Be sure to add some heavy fillets that won't blow out at ejection.
