David,

I don’t know if you have me on the list, but if not, could you please add me?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Jon

I'm interested in a LIA-100 also. Already have one of your 77's and I like it!

Default LIA-77 Instructions

For those who may have purchased the LIA-77 pad, here is a scan of the vintage Centuri instructions to go along with it.

Now that it has warmed up, I have started on a LIA-100. Got the base plate (somewhat) done.

I have never had one and wondering if anyone does. Might be over thinking it but need to know the threads and length of the leg screws. Also need dimensions of the blast deflector wood block.

Rocketguy101 and I worked to document all the dimensions of the Centuri ID-100 deflector assembly, including the wooden block, at the following thread:

The leg patterns can be found here: https://forums.rocketshoppe.com/sho...3&page=10&pp=10

A copy of the instructions for the Centuri LIA-100 Heavy Duty Launcher are also attached as well as a photo of my original Centuri LIA-100 Heavy Duty Launcher and EP-612 Professional Firing Panel.

OK, another test question. What kind of screws mount the wood block to the Blast Deflector? I am guessing they are small flat-head screws and lift that end up just a bit.

Hi Brian,

For reference, I have a photo attached of both my old Centuri ID-100 Igniter Deflector assembly and a new Centuri ID-77 Igniter Deflector assembly side by side with the fasteners shown for the wood block on the ID-77 Igniter Deflector assembly. They are round pan head wood screws. I will have to check the fasteners on my ID-100 Igniter Deflector assembly when I get home this evening and will let you know.

Edit: Found another photo of my old Centuri ID-100 Igniter Deflector back view, which also shows round pan head wood screw fasteners in the top of the wood block to hold the metal tabs and micro-clip leads in place. I suspect that the bottom fasteners are the same, but I will double check.

Kind regards,
Jeff Jenkins

The fasteners for the Centuri LIA-100 Heavy Duty Launcher tripod legs are shown in the attached photo. The total fasteners for the legs include six slotted flat head countersunk machine screws #10 x 24 threads per inch x 2 inches long, six #10 flat washers, and six #10 wing nuts.

The wooden triangle base launch rod support glued on the bottom of the 0.250 inch thick Masonite triangular platform is 1.125 inches on three sides x 0.750 inches tall.
