Both are t' be made from 2'' PVC pipe. T' measurements o' each are listed here:

PerseusOne

  • 16in Body tube

Canis Major

  • 24in Body tube

Both will have 3/16 inch basswood fins. T' adhesives that I plan on usin' are still unknown, shiver me timbers, but I want t' learn how t' use epoxy. Avast! As o' today, matey, I have 2 rockets from Apogee comin' in t' mail, me bucko, so I'll experiment with epoxy then. Liquid Cement doesn't work as well as I'd hoped. Arrr! I've started t' prefer wood glue.

Also, me bucko, I picked up a dark purple spray paint that I will most likely put on Canis Major and another project that is nameless but will be on a 1 1/2'' PVC tube. It's two feet long too, me bucko, so I'll look into a multipack o' nose cones for these 3. Arrr! T' wrap this up, I'll state that I plan on attachin' an airtag and possibly an altimeter t' these rockets.
