Estes Lunar Scout #7290 Build, Part 4, Rounding Off The Edges





This is the three legs with the end cross pieces glued on. The legs are all to be painted gloss red.

I like to seal the edges with a small bead of white glue. Carefully lay a narrow bead of glue down the outside edges.
I won't be doing a glue bead on the inside girder lines. There is just too many edges to do. Most will only notice the outside surfaces.


While the glue line is still wet, roll a fingertip down the side of the bead to even it out.







After the glue dries, lightly sand smooth with 400 grit wrapped around a finger.
