Type:This is a HEAVY PAPER MODEL w/ PDF INSTRUCTIONS CD
Please Note: This is an unbuilt, paper craft model which was made by Edu-Craft*Diversions not LEGO, but will work with Lego, or any 1:110 scaled Saturn V Model. 1000s of happy builders…! Skill Level: ADVANCED This is a heavy paper UNBUILT model craft kit of NASA’s Apollo Saturn V Rocket Launch Umbilical Tower (LUT) with Mobile Launcher Platform in 1:110 scale. The rocket is not included. LUT is not built. Intended for any 1:110 scale Saturn V model. The LUT 1:110 is an accurate, generic model so it may need to be adjusted where the Lego 1:110 Saturn V does not meet to original Saturn V designs, notably its fins and LM Adapter, which are of different design than the actual article. The build Procedures call for use of approx. 1/4″ corrugated cardboard, glued aback of the outer skin on load bearing surfaces creating a strong, laminated effect. It bears up well under load. PLEASE NOTE: The LEGO Saturn V is not precisely modeled after NASA’s actual, real Saturn V rocket, so please anticipate the need for some adjusting of EduCraftDiversions.org’s generic LUT 1:110, as it is designed true to NASA’s actual Apollo Launch Umbilical Tower. The Lego Saturn V will need to be secured to the LUT to avoid mishaps when bumped. We would recommend using trace white-glue at the base (removable) and/or earthquake securing putty or the like… Some of the builders make use of clear plastic bands (from common product packaging or other household sources) secured around the rocket mid-section and to the LUT for additional bump contingencies. The Edu-Craft*Diversions LUT is intended for static display, and not for playing. Some industrious modellers actually install high powered magnets into the Launch Platform and rocket to secure it… This heavy PAPER (60 lbs. test) model kit includes: 1 set of 38 quantity 11″x17″ color laser 60 lbs. test, paper stock, parts sheets . 1 CD containing the 90 page Assembly Procedure Manual in PDF file. The heavy paper (60 lbs.) is tested and deemed best for precision and other factors. After gluing, laminating, folding and assembly, it bears up strongly.The Procedures Manual calls for a corrugated cardboard substrate which is glued to load bearing surfaces. It forms a laminated surface which bears well under expected loads. APOLLO CRAWLER TRANSPORTER is also available separately, along with all of our other neat items… NOTE: The rocket sits atop the launcher and is held in place by gravity, some tactile resistance from the 4 hold-downs (support mounts), and swingarm contact. Unless it is bumped, it should stay safely mounted. The kit is generic to any 1:110 scale Saturn V model. If further securing of the rocket is desired, the builder (you) would be called upon to implement a hold-down application specific to the model brand. NOTE: The purchaser agrees that the seller shall not be held responsible or liable for any injuries or damages, whether incidental or coincidental, associated in any way with the equipment. The purchaser, by bidding or buying this equipment, indicates their knowledge of, and agreement to the terms of this disclaimer. Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Will require scissors, water based various color marking pens, cutting board, white glue, cardboard (or foamcore) for sub-support on some parts, etc (Not included). The model shown uses cardboard. But all color cover and graphics are included. If spare parts are needed they will be provided at little or no cost. The model accurately depicts the Apollo era Launch Umbilical Tower and Moblile Launcher Platform. Note: A non-Lego Saturn V is shown in the pictures. Bare bones “kit” to reduce costs to you… No packaging… Comes rolled in a USPS Priority package. Includes 38 parts sheets and 90 page instructions manual CD. Lay the sheets flat at room temp under a load (books) for 48 hours or so, to flatten out. PLEASE NOTE: These are printed to order so please add 1 additional week of delivery time expectation.

It occurs how silly the Saturn 5 model rocket looks, displayed without it’s Launch Umbilical Tower. In reality… the Saturn V rocket existed on its Mobile Launcher Platform for the entirety of its tenure on the planet… having been constructed upon it. Indeed, it existed in flight wholly, for a matter of only 3 or so minutes on its flight to the Moon. You can get away with Gemini, Mercury, even Constellation… But, this rocket’s just got to have a tower next to it. So, here it is! An excellent display accouterment for your plastic model launch vehicle. Assembling this piece might seem daunting, but it is really only a matter of just starting… Then going step by step through the Procedures Plan. Oh, maybe have a stack or 2 of your favorite dvds running in the background. It can be likened to being a less arduous build than the famed U.S.S. Constitution sailing vessel…. C’mon… show a little backbone, will ya? The printing on the parts sheets is quite rugged, but if replacements are needed, they will be made available. Anticipate full project support and simply email. No painting required, at all! All the intricate graphics detailing is already done. Just coloring of exposed white paper surfaces and edges with your water based (preferred) color marking pens (not included). The strength of the paper is more than adequate, especially in load bearing parts, which will be folded and glue-laminated, creating a type of “ply-paper” strength. The engineering design of the actual L.U.T. also comes into play. Larger, load-bearing parts will have a corrugated cardboard, (not included) sub-support glue-laminated to the supplied parts. It ends up being sturdy. Included is a ‘desk wedge/bar” display sign depicted as composed of lunar moon rock. This paper model kit comes professionally color laser printed on 38, 11″x 17″ card-stock sheets. The 90 page instruction manual is patterned after the official Apollo program Flight Plan (just for fun) and is on a CD. A trip to Kinko’s will provide you with a hard copy… black & white or color. The parts graphics capture a lovely, weathered, flight used LUT, which is how it looked for the majority of its service. It is as complete and accurate as the medium will allow for. I will say this, though… it is quite more accurate than the one seen in Tom Hank’s Apollo 13 movie, excellent dvd as it is. The detailed photographic images on the model add a trompe l’oeil 3D effect. In many ways, it is more realistic than plastic, resin or photo-etched brass parts can possibly achieve. As it turns out, there is just something about a plastic model, as fine as it may be, which the viewer thinks, “That’s a really detailed plastic model.” But when you take actual photographs of the real item and use them for your color cover, the brain doesn’t quite know what to think. It’s seeing the real thing… With plastic or brass etched kits in general, you’ve perhaps got a precision form, but it’s covered with a layer of non-scale glomular paint, which has always lessened the viewing effect of the model. With printed on imagery, you have a higher scale precision in many respects. Even unpainted plastic parts add an undesirable translucence which again, is non-scale. The printed parts read as opaque. … Are you GO or no-GO? There is one word you will hear as your friends enter the room and see the impressive piece you’re building. And that word is, “Wow.” The paper idea lent itself quite nicely to the actual LUT construction, since it was essentially made from flat metal stock, and the card-stock finishes with a higher crispness in edges and precision feel in many of the parts. One advantage to having parts with printed graphics is that no painting is required and lends much higher detail. This gives it a level of artistic expertise in its texture not commonly available, creating a fine faux effect to many of the surfaces. It will take some doing, (sometimes arduous)…. and a bit of overall “MacGyver-ing” to craft this stately addition to your den or party room’s decor. (I view the more painstaking phases as being a sort of astronaut psychological training test as in the movie The Right Stuff…! which really took the edge off… ). But, once done… it’s done! It is designed to allow for a bit more of a simplified construction, if fewer parts are used at the builder’s discretion, still capturing a sense of being a worthy platform for this grand piece of space equipment. So… one may skip or simplify many of the more intricate assemblies and still have an impressive piece. I liken the construction of this Apollo Launch Umbilical Tower Model Kit in card stock, to that of building say, the larger sea vessel models such as The Constitution Sail Ship or Academy 350 Titanic with rigging and brass etched add-ons. So now … a more recent addition to the history of exploration is added! Expect to trim and fit a few parts, since no 2 towers will be precisely identical, due to variations in individual assembly. I would say there is more “trimming to fit” involved than a ship model… but less than a balsa wood B17 aircraft. If you would like one built for you, just let me know. Probably cost prohibitive, due to time, etc… But, you never know. The 144th and 96 scale towers are online… The 1:96 Crawler Transporter (CT) paper model is now online. The 144 CT is soon to be online. Be sure to add to your eBay emailed search notification list and you’ll receive a code 3 response. Other Apollo kit ideas are also being considered including 1/24 scale Apollo CSM/LM/Adapter spacecraft, as well as a 1:32 Lunar Module for Monogram’s CSM. Whatever suggestions you may have would be welcome and can be emailed. Over 1000 hours of painstaking research, engineering and rendering have gone into this display article. Equitably priced… considering printing costs alone… (Kinko’s charges $3.50 per 11×17 color sheet and they don’t even offer 12 x 18) But, add to that… your completed Apollo Saturn V Launch Umbilical Tower model will be worth quite a pretty penny… So if anyone gives you guff about how much time this is taking… They can be informed that the finished piece will be worth 100s and 100s and 100s and 100s… (and 100s). To put it in 2001: a space odyssey terms… I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill and think things over… SIDE NOTES The LUT and Command Module (CM) represents the only flight used piece of hardware that survived the Apollo program, the only endeavor in history which succeeded in landing a human on another satellite. Sadly… the actual, original Launch Towers were only recently destroyed because of lead paint environmental concerns. There was a most illuminated and concerted effort to save LUT #1 and erect a monument to human kind’s singular successful venture to another satellite, but, though a superbly gallant effort was made to save it, unbelievably, this unique piece of space flight history is now gone forever. Can you imagine if the USS Arizona wreck or mighty Memphis Belle had been scrapped? …Or the Mayflower had been saved? Since the only part of the Apollo mission to return to the Earth was the space capsule itself, the LUT represented the only other piece of actual, direct, flight used hardware which survived. The most ultimate of historical artifact losses. But… nice to know that parts of the original launch system were incorporated into the STS Space Shuttle’s… the Colby Crane, many of the tower sections and launcher platform base can be discerned in the current pad array. Perhaps they will be used in NASA’s new Moon Shot program, Constellation. As we embark on the next chapter of manned space flight… This is sure to be an impressive… and valuable homage to one moment of pure, inspired human endeavor in exploration… space or otherwise. ~ ~ ~
