Step 2Making the crimping spacer
The crimping spacer will allow you to crimp the nozzles of these rockets a whole lot easier. The original design was published in a newsletter from skylighter.com and used a wooden dowel rod. I did not have a dowel rod handy and decided a pen would work great.
First, start off by measuring 1 inch from the end of the pen and cut it off. Next, drill a 1/8 inch hole into the end and make sure the fuse fits in nice and smooth. Lastly, wrap some tape 3/8 of an inch down from the end cap until it is about 1/4 inch thick.
