Glass on fin cant question

I was wondering, If I purchase the Future Fins F4 glass on fins…would the cant be molded into the fin like their removeable fins? Or do I go old school? Any input is appreciated!

the cant on the box fins is because the base that goes in the box is at a different angle than the fin itself. a glass on won’t havethis because there is no base to go in a box, just a fin. someone on here enlightened me with using clamps to set he cant. clamp the fin, shim oneside, and continue until you get the correct angle. not sure what you mean by ‘old school’? 

good luck hope this helps

Rarely do glass-ons any more.  When I do, I use a hot glue gun and an adjustable square.  Mark a pencil line on the lammed blank three to four inches long where the fins are to be placed.  Plug in and get the glue gun hot.  Set you adjustable square to the degree of cant you desire.  Lay the glass-ons out on the blank.  Working one fin at a time run a thin bead of glue down the botton of first fin. I usually do the side fins first from right to left(I am left handed). I put the bead on the first fin.  Set the glue gun down(not on the freshly lammed blank), pick up my square and set the first fin to my desired cant.  Hold it against the square until it is completly set and solid.  Then do the same to the opposite side fin.  Set the center fin last using a fixed 90 square.  Don't get in a big a$$ hurry and let go of the fin before the glue has hardened.  Then lay up the fins with strand and football patches.  Let set.  Trim everything up with a razor or Stanley knive blade and hotcoat the whole enchilada. No tape.  No clamps.  Capiche? 

I was just hoping the fin would have a flat bottom with the cant still there, almost as if one had ground the part that goes into the fin box off…For this adjustable square you speak of, do you recommend any specific one/style? There seem to be quite a few different types.

I just use a cheapy like most carpenters carry in their bags,  It consists of a metal straight edge with a slot in it, a plastic or wooden piece that has a straight edge on both sides and a wing nut that holds the two pieces together and allows for adjustment. Determine the degree of angle or cant by checking it against the fin set up in another board.  There are also various plastic guages that can be bought at Home Depot or Lowes that have degree of angle printed on them if you cant find a buddy's board that has the degree of cant you desire.  Adjust the square to to fit the degree on the guage.
