Having a run at the Legal01 Re-envisioned Saturn V Mark III

Okay, here is what I am up against presently. Here is everything for the Saturn V all printed out. Minus reprints of course. For this model my intentions will be at the end to suspend if from the ceiling with all the components separated. I will check the fits of the individual sections as I go just to make sure everything joins together nicely.

Also, check out the new cutting mat.

I hope those links were relevant. You guys know the numbers, models numbers, who had touched what, I just don't have the Brain for that, but I sure do admire it. :)
The links were really helpful, thanks Zathros. Lot of cool stuff also, there is a link to the new engine article in the first article.

I bet that certain parts of this, could be made from aluminum flashing, used for roofing. It would allow you to actually emboss the textures into the material, and with a good two part epoxy, you could end up with a very realistic looking engine. The plans are so good, that with careful fore though, and a tubing bender, you go could go bonkers and make youRself something you could ignite, albeit, only with propane, but that would be effective, especially if you put something that smokes in the combustion chamber. Just some mental wanking. ;)

When putting the two cones together, make sure the seams are on opposing sides. When the thrust structure is built and the engines put on it will look better this way in my humble opinion.

Just a heads up, when building the thrust chamber, after part A, the even letter parts are letter up B, D, F etc. The odd letters are letter down on C, E, G etc.

These are my least favorite pieces and if you have the means I recommend cutting off the tabs and putting it together that way. With the tabs it gets a bit bulky and never looks right in my opinion. For this build though, I kept the tabs.
