"Now what we'll do is going to take the engine mount that we had created before, it is all glued and dried; everything's pretty tight, it's good to go. I'm going to take the body tube and we're going to insert the engine mount tube into the body tube. Oh I'm having a little bit of problems putting it in. To make sure that the gluing goes smoothly with this step, I like to take the ring; centering rings on the engine tube and sand them so that they're smooth around. It makes the assembly go a little bit faster. Sometimes they don't say that in the instruction kits and it's a good step just too probably do because won't make a difference width wise and when it goes in; but it will help with the assembly process. It can be frustrating when you got glue drying and you try and put the mount on and lock it together, and the glue dries in an unfortunate position and you have to do a re-wok."
