Summary

Bring your Kerbal Space Program rockets to life with these 25 modular rocket parts. Parts are designed to snap together using neodymium magnets to allow you to build and modify your rockets into different designs just like you're in the VAB.

Rocket parts are 1:50 scale to in-game parts, e.g. 2.5m parts in-game are 5cm. Are these pieces a little too big for your desk? Check out my 1:100 scale parts.

All parts fit 6x2mm neodymium disk magnets with some space left over for a cover plug. Magnets and plugs can be glued in place with normal super glue. With the cover plugs in place, the pieces hold together well, but you have to be careful when moving it or you may experience rapid unscheduled disassembly. For a better hold, try placing the plugs underneath and have the magnet exposed, even with the part surface. Or, for a more permanent fit, print the longer plugs to glue two pieces together. See the post-printing section for more details.

STL files are grouped together with related parts but are not necessarily meant to be printed together. Import the STL into your slicer and split the parts to print the pieces in the quantities you want.

Want a part that I am missing? Leave a comment and I'll do my best to try to model that part.

All parts are modeled from scratch in Fusion 360. I make them as detailed and accurate as possible, but some parts may require slight modifications to make printing easier.

UPDATE: Fixed Skipper Engine piece where splitting it caused a separate ring piece to form.
