Brief Description:  Left elevator rolling the leading edge

The rolling of the leading edges. This part I did not like and I'm not entirely happy with.

I used a 3/4 inch steel pipe, and used the vice grip method and lots of gorilla tape. After rolling both sides, I attached the the skins together. I had quite a bit of pillowing on the middle piece.

Took it apart and tried it again.

I'm not happy with the left elevator compared to the right.

I'll be removing the rivets and re-rolling the leading edge in the future.
