Incidentally, that purple color on the Estes Eliminator tubes can be sanded off very easily and the tubes re-painted in any color. My friend Andrew did that for the Estes Pro Series Prowler kit and it came out looking great; he just couldn't fly a hot pink rocket!

I am also interested in the flaws of the 1340 fin can as these might be easily corrected during 3D printing. One option might be to print the fin can with slots to accept wood or fins made from some other material like G10.


Teflonrocketry1: If you like, I can send you a fin can from an unopened Maniac kit for you to copy, and make any 'improvments.' I would like a coupler for an LT-125 tube. Let me know the cost. I have the stuff to make a 1340.
