Hi Guys,
I just assembled the fins and cut out the fairings. Thos fairings look to be incredibly delicate and I wanted to bounce a few ideas off you.
1.) I am doing a five engine cluster so should I or do I need to beef them up?
2.) Can I beef them up with a very thin layer of epoxy on the inside or will this damge them?
3.) Can I or should I attach the fin to the fairing with epoxy?
4.) Can I cut out a piece of balsa or card stock to at least reinforce the bottom of these things?
Cheers
fred

(snip.) Marking the tube accurately is now on the top of my list of things to do in future projects. I should have drawn two lines for the tunnels to go up and the wraps to line up on. Oh well live and learn.

In her world the saying is measure twice, cut once.
In our world, it would be measure twice, dry-fit twice, cut (or cement) once.
This has been invaluable advice for me. I hope this helps.
