Estes Great Goblin, #9724 Build, Part 26, Tying It Up & Finished

The shock cord was tied to the nose cone base with a square knot. The SC tail was pushed into the hole in the shoulder base. This keeps the shock cord end out of the way when sliding the nose cone into the body tube.

The loop knots in the shroud lines were tied to the base of the nose cone using a Kevlar line.

Here's the finished build.

The Goblin name and Bat decals are on both sides of the fin to the left in the picture.

The 3s are on opposite sides of the middle fin.

The Goblin character decal are on both sides of the far right side fin.

Each build took approximately 12 1/2 hours.

That includes construction, filling balsa and body tube seams, finishing and decals. The total time doesn't include waiting for the paint to dry.
