This is a short post.
Using 30 minute epoxy, the motor tube and parachute compartment were glued into position.
Liquid plastic cement was applied to the model's alignment pins and external seams. The assembly was secured with rubber bands to keep everything tight while all the adhesives dried and cured.
Tomorrow, a little extra plastic cement will be carefully brushed into the seams to flow into any remaining gaps. The seams will then get a light finish sanding to remove any irregularities that might remain.
I don't anticipate much work in this area, as the seams will be mostly hidden when the SRB units are attached.
Moving on...
