Estes Laser Lance #3218, Part 4, Fin Assembly and Tube Contour



Here's one of the fin assemblies glued up.




The front end joints got some CWF and sanding.


The back end is open and a little bit too flexible. 

TIP: Make a fill piece out of scrap balsa for support in the next step.



The support piece was slipped in the back - no glue.



The base of the fins assembly is thick and will need some contour sanding.

Wrap some 220 grit around the BT-55 tube. Sand back and forth to make a inside arc and better fit the body tube.
