Well, it was a PIA, but it will be worth it. I decided that the elevator on the 27% Extra 300 that I'm building just wasn't big enough, so with a little hacking and cutting, I came up with this. Waddya think?

Nice job! I wish I had done this on my Midwest Extra.

Which Extra is it that you are building?

Keeping them out of the direct airstream should reduce flutter. Plus I was concerned with making them too long. (I wanted to bring the hinge line farther forward, but couldn't because it would have interfered with the servos which will be mounted in the stab).
