Launch Preparation instructions
If you haven't already done
it, cut out the Bottom pattern. Spread glue thinly and evenly
over the back of the Bottom pattern and glue it to right half of the
box (set aside in a previous step).
Cut out the Bottom with
a sharp craft knife and a ruler.
Place the Bottom into the inside of the Top and glue into place with
a fillet of glue around all the edges. Make sure the
Launch Rod holes are lined up.
Glue the Motor Mount Pattern to back of one of the extra flaps.
Cut out the Motor Mount. Crease the cardboard along the dashed
lines using a ruler and ball point pen.
Fold the Motor Mount into a
trangular tube and tape it together with a wide piece of tape on the
inside of the seam. Don't worry about the seam poking out a
little at the point.
Insert the Motor Mount into the hole in the Bottom and slide it up
until it just pokes out the Top. Make sure the seam on the Motor
Mount is not lined up with the Launch Rod holes.
Run a fillet of glue around the jounts between the Top and the Motor
Mount and the Bottom and the Motor Mount.
This completes construction of the rocket.
I recommend at least 2 light
coats of clear enamel to protect the cardboard and glue from moisture.
