On the left I'm not sanding. The shroud is just sitting on the ring and base - no glue yet. I'm using the shroud to get an idea of the sanding block angle.
On the right, notice the masking tape on the tube to prevent any sanding of the tube edge. I'm just sanding an angle on the disk edge.
The base angle has been sanded. You can see it in front of my fingertip.
The launch lug is evenly cut in two.
If the launch lug is stiff, you can cut through it with a single edge razor blade.
If it feels like it is being crushed, slip a dowel inside the lug for support when cutting.
Round out the ends with a sharpened dowel.
Sand the lug ends flat,
Round out the ends again with the sharpened dowel.
