New Way Nike Ajax Build, Part 17, Control Surfaces






Here's the nose section showing the tunnel joint cuts.

On the right side I have dabbed on some CWF to fill the open cut.

The control surfaces are glued and centered onto the trailing edge of the upper triangular fins.

TIP: On the left - how glue is applied right out of the bottle.
On the right - The glue line is evened out before gluing onto the fin edge. 
Swipe the side of your fingertip down both side edges leaving an even glue line in the center.
This smoothing of the glue line leaves less "squeeze out" and a cleaner finished joint.






Here's the control surface piece centered down the trailing edge of the upper fins.
