Estes Rocket Paint Tool

thingiverse

A simple tool for holding Estes model rockets so they can easily be painted. There are 3 interchangeable rocket holders, one each for 18mm, 24mm and 29mm rocket motors (covers 1/2A, A, B, C, D, E and F motors). Each holder can fit into the motor mount, and the base then holds the rocket holder. This will allow you to hold most rockets stable for painting. You can also use these as display mounts for your finished rockets. I also thought that the base could easily be mounted to a simple turn table device to make painting even easier. There are a lot of different turn tables here on Thingiverse which would work quite well for this.
