Are you kidding? Don't underestimate yourself. I've seen you post a ton of rockets here, and you do fine work. I would say that you are ready!Originally posted by CQBArms

I do not think my jedi skills are up to that yet.

I remember back in the first Golden Age of Rocketry (not the current one, or actually this may be the Renaissance....) the only way to make fins from any kit was cutting out the fin template from the printed cardstock, tracing and cutting out with your hobby knife/box cutter/matt knife/single edge razor blade. Trust me, if a 10 year old could get the hang of it, you can too. As was mentioned before, drop a couple of bucks (even less with a 40% off coupon from Hobby Lobby) on a sheet or two of balsa, get some practice, and you'll have it down in no time. Sharp knife + metal straight edge + repeat passes when cutting across grain = great fins.
Just my 2 cents....
