While I had the Ultimate Fin Jig out, might as well attach the fins.

Re: 28 Jan 1986- 28 Jan 2021- Challenger 35th Anniversary...
May these poor unfortunates rest in peace and the memory of their demise lead NASA back to best path. I realize that losses occur in any such dangerous endeavor, but to lose good people to such neglect as befallen our loses at NASA, is a poor mark on NASA's legacy.

If I could find the insurance from a different source, I might give it up.

Re: SpaceX just launched 143 satellites...
It's an accomplishment for sure but I'm not that excited to know there are more ways to track us. :mm: Babe, I don't think you have to worry so much about the stuff in space, it seems to me that your movements are being followed closely enough by terrestrial eyeballs. :lol: maybe by some even in yo...

Re: Estes Scrambler Clone
I've decided to follow the original instructions as much as possible for this build, so I will be using the three engine hooks on the engine mount. A couple of ideas I also had was to put engine blocks in front of the hooks. I don't know who came up with this idea, but Estes started doing it sometim...

Re: Estes Scrambler Clone
One of the ways to compensate for a loose fitting shoulder on a nose cone or transition is to finish the entire piece. Here I am applying sanding sealer to the transition. 101_1630.JPG Normally when I dip a nose cone in sanding sealer, I hold it by the screw eye. I was concentrating on the low volum...

Re: Tools from Uncle Ted
I pulled out the mini fin jig for my Scrambler build, but the opening is just a bit too small to accommodate a BT 60.

Re: Estes Scrambler Clone
As some of you may have noticed, I do not have the nose cone for the Scrambler. The one shown in the parts layout is the nose cone for the Olympus. The outline printed is from a Rock-Sim generated nose cone which doesn't resemble the Scrambler nose cone as seen in pictures. Thus, I am looking for so...

Re: Estes Scrambler Clone
To those observant in the parts layout photo, you may have noticed that I am short a couple of Engine Hooks. I started searching around for them cheap, but most places wanted close to a buck a piece. I did some quick searching for a supplier of spring steel that size and couldn't find anything bette...
