ASP D Region Tomahawk Build, Part 15, Fin Plate Forming and Adhesion



Bend the long (already embossed) sides over a straight edge.
You should be able to set the metal edge of a ruler into the embossed line. Press up with your fingertips. Crease the entire length of the fold.









You'll have to go back and curve the bottom again after folding the sides.
Here's the underside and outside of the fin plates.
Set them into the space between the fins to be sure you have the curve and folds right. Re-form them if needed.


Set them on a scrap piece of cardboard for adhesive spray. Here they are set on masking tape with the sticky side up.

The backside of the plates were lightly sprayed with 3M 77 spray.
