My mail carrier did a nice job of folding mine too. Could be worse....like wet, mangled, or lost. ;) |

The zip file is about 50 meg, and that's going to suck up a whole lotta bandwidth if I wind up emailing it around to everyone. Anybody want to pony up some online storage briefly? I'd be willing to put it out on bit torrent, but I doubt most of the old farts around hear are familiar with that file sharing technique :p . |

Sure, I can put it up, but it'll have to wait till tomorrow as I'm about to go out the door. I'll email you the particulars (ftp server and account) later tonight. |
Gloss or flat?
What type of finish are we looking for here? Scale-like flat or show-off glossy?
I'm priming the tubes now, might be finish coating them in a couple days. |
I think the gloss is more durable.

I did not receive the kit Saturday, so opened kit #21 and will start to fill spirals on the main tubes. Glossy finish, check.

I got mine Saturday and got the tube spirals filled yesterday. Has any one built this one similar to the 1/70 Estes Sat 1b and painted it in sub-assemblies? I'm just worried about seams or an ill fit with the scallop shroud.

Carl, I know I'm very late getting here, but my internet service (DSL) had been out for the past 2 1/2 weeks and I just got it back on line this afternoon. If you have one more build of
the Saturn 1-B, I can do one. I still have my original Estes 1/70 kit ("in-the-box") I haven't started on (yet). I do, however, have my original Centuri 1/100 Saturn 1-B (which is the Apollo - 7 round) in my collection, so I can use it as a reference point . Also, speaking of Richard Benevides, I've e-mailed him some time ago asking if he was going to compete in a Regional meet at JSC (as he did back in the Fall 2005). From his response, I gather that he was no longer interested in building & flying model rockets. I do, however, see that he posts in the Space - Modelers Yahoo Group (mostly pertaining to plastic/static models) often. |
Dave,
It will go out tomorrow. Thanks! I did not realize the Centuri 1B was Apollo 7. Does anyone have the service model silver wrap? |
