50. Slide the canard alignment guide onto the front

of the body tube to a position approximately 1/2"

(13mm) in front of the front canard position marks,

and align the slots with the lines. Apply wood glue

to the bottom of each canard and slide into place

from the back, aligning the aft edge of the canard

with the position mark. As with before, it can be

helpful to use a toothpick to apply the glue. Also,

take care to align the canard along the fin line.

Repeat for each canard and allow to dry before

continuing.

51. Mount the aft scale rail guide (completed in

step 39) by applying wood glue to the bottom of

the rail guide with the standoff attached. Glue the

guide into place right at the step in the tube and

centered on the rail guide line. Tweezers can be

handy for placing the scale rail guides if handling

with fingers is difficult.

52. Mount the forward scale rail guide similarly by

applying wood glue to the bottom of the remaining

rail guide and attaching it to the rocket centered on

the rail guide line with its back edge sitting on the

forward rail guide mark.

53. Apply glue to the launch lug and attach it on

the launch lug line with its back end aligned with

the mark made in step 43. Allow the rocket to dry

entirely before continuing.

54. With all the joints dry, remove the alignment

guides from the main fins and canards. Then,

apply small fillets to all the fins as well as the scale

rail guides and launch lugs. These fillets should

be minimal to maintain a scale appearance. Glue

can be applied in a thin bead and smoothed with a

finger tip. Allow the fillets to dry.
