Customer Reviews

Easy to use Review by Kent

This is a very helpful tool that's easy to use and makes building a snap. Well worth having. (Posted on 4/20/13)

Nice Concept Review by Tri-County

Looks like a great idea. A bit faster and more versatile than the built in tool of the "Tube Marking Guide" set. It would be nice to know what size tubes it can accomodate. (Posted on 3/4/13)

Perfect Review by DRacer

I tried several other ways to mount fins but this is by far the easiest. Straight fins and exact placement on your first try is possible.

A must for new rocketeers Review by David

I have had my fin alignment tool now for quite some time. I used it on my first rocket kit. Takes the quesswork and headaches of aligning the fins by sight. The only thing that I would like to see different would be a new fin alignment tool that will accomodate a five fin configuration. I just finished helping a young man put a 5 fin configuation on his Viking model rocket and it presented a challenge for him. I went home and built a simple alignment tool. I used it and was able to align the fins with a 72 degrees spacing. Had I not did that, the boy would have had to go with the 3 or 4 fin setup.

Great Product! Review by Billy

This is a must have for anyone serious about building model rockets! Maximizes the performance of the rocket everytime (Posted on 6/29/12)

Oh, get this--you won't regret it! Review by Glen

How many fins have you glue on that you thought were just perfect, but after the glued dried, you notice one fin was off by "just a little bit?" Well, that "little bit" is going to cause your rocket to spin or wobble and ultimately rob your chance to reach maximum altitude. When you don't reach maximum altitude, your ejection delay is probably not going to release your parachute at the opportune moment which can lead to more problems. Forget all that--just get this Fin Alignment Guide and quickly glue, clip and set your fins perfect every time. (Posted on 6/17/12)

No more wonky fins Review by Alan

Ok so I had a couple of rockets turn into lawn darts and decided I had to stop trying to align my fins by eye. Bought the alignment guide and now my fins are going on perfectly. (Posted on 4/12/12)

Great for beginning modeler Review by Dennis

This helps the inexperienced modelers as well as the experts get their rocket off the work bench and in the air. Use a light amount of wood glue to initially set the fin with this guide for fast build times. (Posted on 3/1/12)
