Semroc Little Joe II Build Part 5 Fins


Here's the ribs glued into one side of the fin cover.

The instructions are right - use just a little glue to set the ribs in place. Too much and it could distort the other side of the cardstock surface.
Click on the picture for an enlarged view and you can see I tapered the ends for a wedge fit. I didn't want to do a lot of filling later on.




This shows how much of the flat, wider inside rib gets sanded down to match the angle taper of the side ribs.





This is the trailing edge after trimming and sanding to the sides of the fin cover.
