The fin plates will need a sharp knife to remove them from the laser cut sheet. Don't try to punch them out.
Sand the edges smooth removing the black soot.
To help prevent de-lamination, run some medium CA down the edges. Don't get any CA glue on the flat surfaces, just on the edge.
After it dries, smooth it out with some 400 grit.
For better glue adhesion, remove just the shine off the flat surfaces with 400 grit.
That dashed line down the center is a great idea. Not only does it help with alignment but it also makes "glue rivets".
Here's all the wood and card stock pieces - shaped, primed, sanded and ready to be glued together.
I slightly rounded the pull out plug card stock back around a glue stick case. Be careful, the piece will want to fold on the cut dashed line.
The shaped wood plug is also slightly rounded on it's bottom side.
