Getting those fin halves to match up can be tough.
I only cut out the root and leading edges of the (outside) printed plys. the other edges can overhang for now.
In the picture you can see where I cut sharp "Vs" in the leading edge of the cardboard.

By lining up the intersection point of the root and leading edges of both outside laminate prints, you can get it very close.
I used my rotary hole punch to cut the inside curves of the scalloped trailing edges. These small curves would be too hard to cut with scissors or a knife. The convex side of the curves were cut with the tip of a razor blade.
Punch on the sides that have the "labels" on them, don't worry about the strut sides yet.
You can be as careful as you want when doing a laminate like this, but there will be a little misalignment.
See the next post for how to clean up any white edges.
