Working on the Estes Little Joe I rocket not much to see here will drop photos of progress so far. One thing i hate on the rocket aside from the tower and capsule assembly is the fins and the hokey way they are built leads to an overall ugly looking fin. I fixed mine I uses balsa aileron stock the correct thickness and width and threw them in lightburn and in less than 10mins I have new fins.

And here's what the fins look like now I really like them. Here's for comparison with the built up fin which I hate.
