| Here is the stabilizer all framed up and ready for sheeting. I had to a lot of sanding to obtain the air foil for the stab on the leading edge. I used the Master Air Screw balsa stripper to make all the formers. Its another of the inexpensive, yet amazing tools. | Now the rear edge of the elevator is all cut out. I used 1/8 inch lite ply and once again I taped the two pieces of wood together so both parts are the same. It was cut out on the band saw and final sanded with the disc sander. |
