Eleven test panels for Saturn V rocket first stage have been completed by Ling-Temco-Vought; when assembled, 19 of them will make up 109-ft circumference of rocket, holding together 2 giant tanks, one atop other; manufacture of panels presented unique tooling problem, since largest available brake for producing corrugations was 3 ft too short; double action brake die, special ram and bed used.
