Vega is a 2.2” diameter cardboard/fiberglass rocket built as both a composite test bed and as a second attempt at my level 1 certification flight.
It used a cardboard body tube that was covered in two layers of fiberglass sleeves for reinforcement.
The fins were cut from plywood and reinforced with fiberglass cloth laid from fin tip to fin tip. Vega flew twice, first for my certification and again (with some modifications) as a booster for Two To Tango.
