Estes Trident (K-33) Dimensions?
Does anyone know where I can find the dimensions (mostly lengths) of the parts used in the Estes Trident (K-33)?
I seem to remember a cross-reference between Estes part numbers and tube lengths, etc., but I'll be darned if I remember where it is. I've got the instructions and templates from JimZ's site already, btw. The Trident looks like a really cool kit, and I'm semi-seriously considering cloning one. Thanks!

Similarly, I believe there's a nose cone cross-reference out there as well. But does it give dimensions? Or does it just say, basically, "this particular nose cone was used in these kits"?

How the heck can the Trident II even have the word "trident" in its name, when it has just 2 ejection ducting tubes and *4* fins??

Get back, Loretta! (I bet you NEVER hear that, eh?) This was your first rocket?! Why didn't you pick something easy like a scratch Saturn or a Mercury Redstone?

The First rocket I built EVER was mid May ( about a month ago). At the same time I was building the Trident I was also building Red River's Predator for a drag race at NSL and then I built a clone of the Mars Snooper. Got a little help from Mark on the fins of the trident and predator. Got a little carried away on the snooper pods ( wasn't paying attenting to the instructions ) and put the main fin on the pod in the wrong place. Then I went on a mini brute kick . So as of now I have built 15 kits including one of my own the Super Sprite . Now I just have to paint them all . Oh Ya lets not forget the 433% up-scale Javelin that I'm building for my L1 Cert. Pictures of my builds will soon be on my web-site under family builds. Loretta P.S. I NEVER do anything the easy way.
