Is is my totally scratch built Saturn 1B before Semroc and Kosrox.

I used a BT60 as the core tube with just a little build up for the fuel tanks. Got all the tubes from totally tubular at the time.

I used 3/16" cardboard with foam in the middle for the all the centering rings. It was setup for 24mm motors. Even did a couple of flights with it.

I also use the Estes K29 instructions from Jimz rocket plans site. I didn't use the inside stiffer tube system that Estes did, I went with more of a 1/100 scale over all layout of the model.

I did go with the original Estes built up 3D fins. I later added a Apogee Apollo nosecone set when it came out.

I made my own wraps best I could at the time, but with no other detail. The decals were from Tango Papa.

The SA207 doesn't match the paint job either, Lol.

Ended up selling it on Ebay several years ago.
