Default horizonal stab question

I am building a 40 size. I epoxed my horizonal stab on thinking it was level with the wing. It is a quarter inch off. A quarter too low on one side and a quarter to high on the other. To remove it I would have to tear it up basically. I thought about srinking the covering more on one side than the other to pull it into shape but the stab is so small it would take some tight covering to do that. What about a small weight on one side and lift the other side and wet the balsa?? The way it is now may or maynot affect the flight but the other flyers at my field would really not let me by on this one without alot of remarks and kidding...Any suggestions??
