RE: Alignment of Tailplane surfaces.
What I do is to use a table with 360 degree access, add the stab with 30 min epoxy, check it horizontally against the wing alignment from both front and back, double check that it is straight from end to end, then, once I am satisfied with the alignment, I add a drop of CA in a few strategic places and hit them with accelerator to LOCK the stab into position till the epoxy cures.
