Peter, those are some good tips. It makes sense to cut away some of the covering if it's in the way. And using news paper or paper towel below the hinge is good to catch overflow. I wanted to makes sure to use enough glue vs not enough. I can live with the glue on the wing more than I can a plane crashing.

I also want to seal my hinges with a strip of mono- coat. I heard from the guys at the field that it really makes a difference.
