You're welcome. Actually, I'm in St. Hyacinthe but hopefully I can still find a smoked meat sandwich. After my "little cardiac episode" last November I don't dare get any poutine.

Yeah, poutine and cardiac "vulnerability" don't mix well at all.
I'm sure your cardiologist would take a very "Dim View" toward consuming any of that.

Steve,

You could get a "clear" fin can 3D printed. I attempted to do this for my clone of the Estes MX-Missile see pictures attached. The files I used were designed by Robnee on Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1190963 and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:427688

I used the fin unit from the Beta Launch Vehicle that has slots for fins that you cut out of clear plastic sheet. I used 1/32 clear Lexan for the fins. I printed the fin unit in white ABS because I didn't have any clear ABS or other higher temp melt plastic filament at the time.
