Beginning rear engine stabilizers:

   Ok, Here is a little disclaimer:  As I have started this project a couple weeks ago, the sections I will be working on is out of order.   I like a challenge so I am starting with sections I know will be time consuming but; once perfected I will be able to duplicate it.

     With the "stabilizers" there are a total of twenty-six (26) thirteen (13) on the top manifolds and thirteen (13) on the bottom.  Sounds easy in theory but there is quite a number of pieces to  be put together to create the structure (and the laminating of each piece  -  from here on I will address the number of sheets laminated as #-Lam)

     The first part I will be constructing is the spoiler.

     A small sharp scissor is used to cut the fins shape a total of  364 times. 
3 -Laminated together for Outer Left-Side edge.
4 -Laminated together for Inner Left-Side edge.   
4 -Laminated together for Inner Right-Side edge.
3 -Laminated together for Outer Right-Side edge.  
     I also created support connectors to join the Outer and Inner edges together.  These connectors are 9mm x 4mm a total of 260 times. ( i always cut extra  as they are so small and easily misplaced or lost do to breeze and clean up)
5 -Laminated together to join Outer Left-Side Fin with Inner Left-Side fin
5 -Laminated together to join Outer Right-Side Fin with Inner Left-Side fin

Diagram of spoiler :  a total of 26 of these will be build.
Progressive construction:  now to complete 25 more times.  🙊
Finally I secure each onto a base.
