Estes Star Stryker Build, #3206, Part 2, Parts Prep

 


Mentioned earlier, this build was already started.
The only thing done was the body tube seams and balsa got some CWF fill and sanding.

The pieces were stored in a small zip bag.
On the left side is the launch lug standoff.








There was a little bit of CWF inside the end of the launch lug.
To clear it, a sharpened dowel was turned in the end of the lug. Turn in the same direction as the tube spirals.






The lug ended up about 1/32" longer than the top surface of the standoff.
This was trimmed back using a single edge razor blade.
