A New Take On Tissue/Glue Putty TIPS

If you built a cluster rocket in the 1960s, you are probably familiar with "Tissue/Glue Putty". 
It was an effective way to block ejection gases from escaping out the back end between engine mount tubes. 
Here's an example from the Astron RANGER instructions, courtesy of Jim Z's.

TIP: If you ever need a tissue/glue putty fill, it helps to tear the tissue paper into very small pieces before mixing with the glue.






This Super Glue and toilet paper method showed up on my Facebook feed.
This wouldn't work in place of white glue and tissue paper on a model rocket - but you might find it useful for some home repairs.
