Fliskits MACME Shrew Build, Part 9, Base Shroud Forming

The shroud was pre-curled in the heel of my hand, by rolling a dowel over the paper.
The gluing tab on the base shroud tail cone is narrow!
I wouldn't recommend using white glue on this, use a glue stick.
TIP: Instead of laying glue on the small tab, try gluing the inside of the opposite edge. It'll still glue over the tab and you won't have to worry about any glue on the outside of the shroud.




The long, smooth jawed tweezers really help when holding the shroud closed.
The pressure helps "set" the glue.




After the glue stick adhesive has dried, a thin coat of white glue was rolled on the inside tab seam with a Q-tip.
