Best Technique for Hinging Split Flaps?
 

Anyone have a good technique for drilling the hole in "exactly" the right place to "bottom" hinge split flaps? You know, all the holes lined up on the same plane.:eek:
Hope my sketch helps.

I used Robart hinges for the split flaps on my TF Spitfire. If I were to do it again, I think that I would strongly consider using a pinned hinge. As for alignment for drilling the hinges, here's something that might work, make some triangle wedges which will give a flat surface perpendicular to the direction you are drilling and then use a drill press with a fence.
