It's simple Mark.
Measure the width of the leading edge, at the point where a hinge is located, divide that measurement by 2. this number will be the depth of the hinge on the pin. Then Depending on how much throw you want, you more than likely will have to carve out a slot for the hinge. The trick is not removing too much so they look good.
The picture shown is the wrong way to do it.

Billy,
Where is that wrong in the pic? If the hinge is 'in' the rudder then there
has to be a 'slot' in the LE of the rudder otherwise the hinge cannot bend??!?!
Cheers,
Mark
I believe he meant w/ the hinge axis at the LE of the rudder (like it shows in the pic) w/o it "sunk" into the rudder....
But i agree with what everyone else has said
