Centuri Flutter-By Build, Part 6, Paper Laminating Fins


After the fins have dried overnight in a heavy book, the edges get a coat of medium CA.
The CA insures the edges stay down during trimming. It also hardens up the edges for smoother sanding.


Cut all the corners form the fin edge out.
This also makes for easier sanding, the edges can flex when bent by the sanding block.



Cut the sides closer to the fin edges.






Finally,
Sand off the paper edges with 220 grit on a sanding block.
Sand off only the paper folded over the sides, don't sand into the wood.
Don't sand the rounded leading edge.
