Surfboard Fins (FCS, FCS2, Futures)

Used the original model as a baseline for the normal fins - thanks for the design!
(original model: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1324570)

Reduced the size to match the fins i already have and increased thickness, because they seemed a little thin.

The mini-fins were designed in blender based on an image i found online.

Same for the knubster center fin.

The side fins can be used right after printing without any post-processing.

For the center fins the model needs to be printed two times with the second version mirrored. The two halves need to be glued together after printing.

The model has 3 small holes - use 2mm long pieces of filament to align the two halves while gluing them together using super glue.

I printed and tested all fins.
