Quest AS-1 Escort Build, Part 11, Wing Tip Tubes

The wing tip tube (launch lugs) ends are cut at a 45 degree angle.

TIP: I drew the angle on my cutting board so the angle would be consistent on both cuts.
Use a new, sharp razor blade to cut launch lugs.

After the cut, sand and even up the edge.

Sanding launch lugs are like filing fingernails, there is usually a thin Mylar skin that folds over and into the lug.
Pick the skin out with a toothpick and sand off with some 400 grit.

Here's how the lug should look after sanding off the rolled over Mylar wrap.









The tip tubes are glued and centered onto the outside edge of the wings.
