That's another advantage of running a "T" pin through the midpoint before setting them in place. #1 you know they are equally set and #2 you can find them. Also helps to flex the control surface to the desired high-rate throw before applying the drops along the hinge-line. Then flex it the other direction and hit the opposite sides. This also assures you won't have binding from overly tight mating surfaces.
