Cloning Thor Agena B
Hello
I am looking at cloning the Estes Thor Agean b. I read somewhere on here that you could use the Semroc SPEV and get most or all the parts, but I have been un able to find that link. does anybody have any assistance or a better way to clone the Thora Agena b I got the part list and directions form Jim Z website and looks like Tango Papa has the decals.

http://modelrocketbuilding.blogspot...hor%20Agena%20B It went very well except I compromised on the clear fin unit.

If anybody wants it, I have a re-draw of the Thor Agena B Nozzles, turbo flange and gussets.
These are to be printed on 110 lb. stock. Email me at: oddlrockets@bellsouth.net and request the Thor Agena B PDF. I'd recommend Sandman's Thor Agena B decals over a home print. His are black and opaque! My home print decals end up a bit translucent when set down over white paint.

I bought some parts from SEMROC in 2008 or 2009 and built a clone of the Estes Thor Agena - B (also used a few parts I had in my stash). A great looking scale model, both for display and flight.
