Attached another Rear Wrap Panel and started installing the Front Wrap Panels.

I had an idea last night about placing the Launch Lug between the Rear Body Wrap and the Body Tube.... which means it'll sit on the Front Wrap and snake through the Rear Wrap. That means I'll need to cut some slots in the Bulkheads.

Used my Dremel and a sanding drum to make the notches in the Bulkheads for the Launch Lug. Worked out even better than anticipated as the Wrap will fit over the Launch Lug, completely covering it, except for the ends.

It's almost meant to be... we'll just call it a DSDC, short for "Death Star Destruction Cannon".

Body Wrap Panel installation is complete... now for the gluing to make it tight.

I made some backers out of cardboard and installed them inside the bulkheads, should make filling the voids much easier.
