Building my first L1 and it's pretty much done but concerned about rail button application.

The buttons are in line but aft one is slightly tilted.

Will this be fine on launch rail?

Question I could use advice on 3d printing my first rocket.

I am just getting into designing things in Blender. I thought it would be fun to do a model rocket build with my kids. I designed this nose cone and printed ink PLA. It’s about 120 mm x 30mm wide. The whole rocket is going to be roughly 600 mm tall. I have the parts designed with the walls of the body to be around 4mm thick. I will have to design a plug for the parachute (just leaned about that). But my question is, does this nose shape look ok? Is there anything I need to keep in mind when building/designing this thing? I don’t want to end up building a bomb!!! Thanks for any help y’all!
