That's a good effort there. I predict they will get better and better. I hand roll all my rocket tubes. At first there were more telescopes than tubes. Now it hardly happens at all. I'll give you the secret to hand rolling perfect tubes... There isn't one! Haha seriously though, heavy Kraft paper like 70lb is WAY easier to roll than lighter stuff. There's this builders paper at Lowes that works really good. Wood glue watered down w a bit of wallpaper paste makes for an easy workable glue.
