Model Minutes Leduc 22 Build, Part 7, Rear Fins



The three rear fins are only two layers of card stock folded over. WAY too flimsy for me. There is two more small pieces glued on the outside edge but that won't be enough to stiffen the fins.





I decided to add a cardboard laminate in the middle layer.

Some cereal box cardboard was cut. The ink side was roughed up with some 220 grit sandpaper. The ink side is roughed up so the glue will stick better.






I simply traced around the wing cut-out. The interior layer pece was cut out just inside the traced line.

I added the fin tab shown as the "G3" area on the bottom piece.
