TIP: Recently I've been cutting off the corner tips on the parachutes. This allows the shroud line knot to be a little closer to the tape disk hole.
Three dowel lengths are cut - Two at 3" long and one at 4 1/2" long.
One end of each dowel is rounded.
TIP: You could simply glue the dowels on the outside edges of the rudder and wing extension piece. Sometimes I'll sanded a slight curve into the outside edges with some 220 grit wrapped around the dowel.
On the right is the is the sanded inside curve. It makes a better fit and a stronger glue joint.
