My toddler is obsessed with rockets at the moment, so I decided to use an extra length of dowel to make him a sturdy one.
I'm currently brainstorming the best way to attach the fins, figured I'd see if anyone here had any ideas
Currently, I'm thinking of cutting perpendicular grooves from the bottom that the fins will slot into, with each pair of fins being a solid piece. But keep in mind I haven't made the fins yet, so that's definitely not set in stone.
Modeling after the v-2 because it looks as stereotypical as a rocket can
I'd also go for the four fins. Easier to do and more robust, since you can prepare two V shaped double fins, put them together outside and the slide them into the main body together.
That.....is a very logical idea
Looks great. Hope the glue is sturdy enough. If your toddler isn't to hard on it this will work too :)
