New Way Blade Runner, Part 12, Gluing On The Fins

The fins were painted before gluing on the blade fins.
The paint increased the thickness slightly. 

For an easier fit, the tab edges were sanded.
The blades were pressed in place. The fit was tight.

CA glue was set on the outside to lock the blades in  place.   





The tabs were sanded even with the faces of the blades.
Use a sanding block of this.

On the left - The tabs have been sanded even. The blades are flat.

On the right - Some CWF was brushed on, only on the outside flat face. This will fill any gaps and grain on the tabs and slots.
