Mercury Redstone Part 4 Fins



With the mount in place, the fin under hang is too wide.
I simply trimmed it back until the root edge touched the body tube.






The fins glued and the fillets are drying.
With the engine in place you can see a slight overhang. If I were to build it again, I'd set the motor mount another 1/16" inside the mainframe tube.
