Carefully cut hinge slots, as, at the proper loca-

tions.

der.

beveling tool. First glue the narrow strip to the

handle, taking care to keep it square. Then glue

the wide strip to the handle and the narrow strip.

‡

When the glue has dried, cut a strip of 100-200

grit sandpaper to size and tack-cement the

sandpaper to the tool, as shown.

17. ‡ Tape the T.E. of the elevator to the work surface.

Using the beveling tool, sand the L.E. to the

centerline. Then turn the parts over and bevel

the other side.

Repeat this process for the rudder. When fin-

ished the pieces should look like the drawing
