Fliskits MACME Shrew Build, Part 14, Launch Lug Hole TIP and Fix

Cutting an elliptical launch lug hole in a base shroud is always dicey - especially at this small size.
On a larger model I'd use my adjustable punch at the top and bottom of the lug cutout. This model is too small for the punch and the shroud is already glued on. 

Here's what you'll be cutting out, the gray shaded oval between fins three and four.
It's cut out after the shroud is formed and glued on.
You'll also be blindly cutting through the overlay skin - it's now covering up the oval print. Good Luck.

To find where the lug will intersect the shroud:

Push in up from the bottom, through the hole in the lowest centering ring.
Make sure the lug is straight and push up until the lug edge raises a bump in the shroud.

In the inset picture, carefully sand through the two layers off shroud until you can see the lug edge.
