🚀 Wildman Mini Jigs

A set of simple, purpose-built jigs designed to make building and finishing your Wildman Mini rockets easier, cleaner, and more consistent.

🔧 Included Jigs

🧩 Fin Alignment Jig
  • Holds fins in perfect alignment during glue-up

  • Helps ensure consistent spacing and straight fin placement

  • Great for reducing guesswork and improving build quality


🛠 Rivet Drill Jig (Avionics Bay / Nosecone Shoulder)
  • Designed to guide drilling for plastic removable rivets

  • Works on avionics bays and nosecone shoulders

  • Keeps holes evenly spaced and properly aligned


🛠 Combo Jig (Fin Alignment Jig / Rivet Drill Jig)
  • Combines both jigs into a single print


🧱 Print Settings

  • Material: PLA works great (PETG, ABS also fine)

  • Supports: ❌ Not required

  • Infill: 15–25% recommended

  • Layer Height: 0.2mm (or your standard profile)

  • Walls: 2–3 perimeters

These parts are not load-bearing, so they print quickly and easily on most setups.


🧪 Usage Tips

  • Ensure the jig is seated flush before marking or drilling

  • For drilling, start with a pilot hole for best accuracy

  • Clamp lightly if needed for extra stability

  • Test fit on scrap or a spare tube before committing


🎯 Compatibility

Designed specifically for Wildman Mini rockets, but may work with similar diameter airframes depending on tolerances.


💡 Why Use These?

  • Faster, more repeatable builds

  • Cleaner, more professional results

  • Reduces alignment errors and mis-drilled holes


🧰 Notes

  • Designed for ease of printing and usability—no supports, no fuss

  • If tolerances feel tight/loose, adjust scaling slightly (±1–2%) depending on your printer


If you make improvements or remix these, I’d love to see them—happy printing and fly safe! 🚀
