FWD Fins installed with 5min epoxy. Notice the bevel. I didn't get it exactly right. I wanted a more shallow bevel on the edges and a deeper one on the front of both FWD and AFT fins. Oh well.

Bottom CR dry installed for alignment and to keep the MMT rigid during fin installation. This design will have 4 CR's, each fin set will be sandwiched between a pair
