Centurion Project Part 4 Cosmic Explorer Fin Fitting


The upper fin shows the gap at the root edge before sanding down the TTW tab a slight bit.
It won't take much, make a few passes with a sanding block and check the fit.

The inset picture shows the better fit.

I've brought this point up before.
The laser cutting process cuts a wedge burn.
The root edge to the right side has been "squared up". You can easily see the angle of the laser cut root edge.




The engine mount is glued in place before the fins are glued in their slots.
The engine hook and launch lug are centered between two fins.
