Default Looking for later version Centuri Black Widow Plans

Hi Folks,

I thought JimZs site had the later version plans but when I got there, all the links were broken. Does anybody have a copy of them and would be willing to email them to me? Thanks!

Here is my copy of the Jimz plans with a couple of caveats :

I couldn't find the plan page with the fin templates. So I carefully traced them from the completed (5+ year old) model. They are a close approximation at best.

I had the cobweb decal at one time because it's on the rocket but I'll be dipped if I can find the file now. A couple of computer upgrades since I built this is my lame excuse.

Hope this helps.

I just finished scanning the ones from my file, but looks like you beat me to posting them. I did not have the sustainer fin pattern, as it went bye-bye several years ago.....

Thanks for posting the instructions and patterns.
That's the way instructions should be done!
Plenty of drawings and plenty of assembly copy.

Great work on the catalog paint pattern.
I tried that paint scheme in my teens but didn't get your results!

Better scan of fin patterns and decals toward bottom of file.

They are a pleasure just to read. Clearly defined steps with more than a 5 word description and line drawing like something from a Renaissance masters sketchbook. A lost art perhaps, I'm glad my intro to the hobby came when this was SOP.

Thanks. I see all the errors, of course . I used Frisket Film from HL to make the masks.
