The parts: This will be a spare parts build.
I re-drew the water slide decals. The original #1111 kit had stickers.
3/32" thick balsa
12" parachute, shroud lines will be replaced with #10 embroidery thread
I used heavy walled BT-50s, a 9.5" and 4" lengths
The original nose block (coupler) was 1" long. I'll make it a bit longer at 1.25"
Elastic shock cord, heat shrink tubing to protect the Kevlar line
A standard 20/50 engine mount, engine hook not shown
The nose cone is a "place holder" until I can get the proper BNC-50AR balsa cone.
Laminated kraft sticks (tongue depressors) were to be used for the tunnel and guidance thrusters. I ended up cutting those from 3/32" basswood.
