The proportions are odd, the legs look much smaller than i imagined them.

Also gotta fix the tearout, I'm thinking of just taking like an inch off the overall length when I round the tip, which will remove the tearout in the process

I also don't have a fucking clue how I'm gonna clamp them for the glue-up. I'm considering gluing one at a time and using rubber bands. i dunno, let me know if you've got a better idea

Even if I were to use dowels, how would I go about getting the holes perfectly aligned, since the contacting surfaces are curved in all three axes?

*two axes

A plane can only have two axes, i know things

Technically, a plane can carry as many axes as their max takeoff weight will allow.
