TIP: While the glue is not quite dry, you can coax any bulging out of the slightly wet glued card stock with a toothpick.
At the back of the scoop at the point of the fold, both sides wouldn't lay flat.

Titebond Molding and Trim Glue was used for fillets here.
There was a small gap where the turned in tabs met the body tube.
The outside of the scoop got a coat of CA applied with a Q-Tip.
Normally I'd put the CA on the inside surfaces of a shroud. But gluing the reinforcement pieces and curving the shroud prevented this.
After adding reinforcement cardstock pieces and a brush of CA, this shroud feels like it's made of thin plastic.
