Forge Missile
By: Daren Humphries
Winner, May 2003 Design of the Month
Contest!
2003 Design of
The Year Winner!
Watch for a March/April announcement about this
exciting design!
Daren's entry has a most unique military cruise
missile look to it. It has simple, clean lines yet boast a level of complexity and
detail that will excite all rocketeers.
The email from Daren has this to say:
The Pictures are pretty straight forward and should help with
construction. This rocket flew very straight and was fun to build. I recommend painting
the dowels before gluing them in position. It’s best to custom fit each dowel. I used
a 3/32 strip of card stock soaked in water then wrapped around a scrap piece of BT-50 to
form bottom ring that the dowels attach to. You want it to be at least a 3/32 profile.
Once dry slide onto the BT-50 and glue into place.
No other special instructions that I can see. If so please ask and have a great time
flyin.
