Our Cub scout launches tons of these each year so I build this to make it easier and faster for youth to assemble.

The jig helps with two assembly steps:

  1. Engine assembly -

    1. Insert the engine mount tube in the hole labeled CUT as to make a small hole for the engine hook.

    2.  Mylar retainer ring - Insert the engine mount to tube in the hole labeled MARK to mark the location for the mylar retainer ring. 

  2. Launch Lug Glue up - Slide the body tube over the MARK side of the jig and the lunch lug over the small stem. Glue and remove once dried.
