Apprentice Rocket Assembly

1. Glue the nose cone shoulder into the

base of the nose cone using plastic glue or su-

per glue (use extreme care when using super

glue). Set aside to dry.

2. Mark the motor mount tube 2-1/4" from

the rear with a 1/8" (3mm) line. Cut a slot

along this line with a hobby knife and insert

the forward tang of the engine hook into the

slot. Wrap several layers of masking tape

around the middle of the tube to hold the clip

in place.

3. Apply a light bead of wood glue inside

the front end of the motor mount tube and

glue the blue centering ring inside the tube. It

should rest against the front tang of the motor

clip on the inside of the tube.

4. Take one of the green motor mount cen-

tering rings and cut out a section about 3/16"

(5 mm) wide - enough to clear the width of the

metal engine hook. Next, run a bead of glue

around the rear outside of the motor mount

tube (except where the motor clip lies). Glue

the split centering ring so that the rear end of

the ring is even with the rear end of the motor

mount tube and the split in the ring clears the

engine hook.

5. Apply a thin bead of plastic glue (or

super glue - again, use extreme care if using

super glue) inside the rear end of the plastic

fin unit and slide the motor mount assembly

into it. The end of the motor mount should be

flush with the end of the fin unit.
