I'm in the process of sanding the bevel on the ailerons for my Tiger 60. Earlier I was sitting here thinking about how I could set up a disc or spindle sander to do the job. Moot point, since I don't have either one![sm=angry.gif]
The first step is to "break" the edge using a long sanding block. Once the first angle is beveled into place, blending the rest in with the same block is easy.

The first bevel is the critical step.
