Thanks for the info Extra300. Yeah I know how the plans and all show the hinge, but I was curious if anyone else here had a different method. Things get real creative on this thread. I have though about using the Robart pin type hinges, but it would be an eye sore. Hey Ryan, mine looks a lot like yours in the above pic... thatthing sure did look good in all primer! I screwed up on my horz stab tonight... drank a margarita before I screwed up... go figure. I am trying to re-engineer it now. On a laughing note... I cannot keep myself from compulsively hunting those damn piholes! Seems like when I think I have found them all, some new ones grow. Later guys,
Bill

Oh Randy, what is the lighter non shrink stuff called? If it is glazing putty, well I am using it

I just went back and read your last post. To clarify, did your taper your elevators in the center or taper it like the plans show?
