One booster assembled. Pretty easy, the only trick is the slot. The instructions note to only cut half the blue stripe, certainly good advice. I started where the blue and gold met and cut halfway to the edges. Once the glue dried I cut the remainder out (careful at the connector).

I also didn't cut the entire width of the blue stripe. This allows some amount of "grab" as the booster is slip fit onto the core. No pictures of that yet, I'll wait until I get the other booster built.
