Brief Description:  Bent the elevator trailing edges.

The first thing I did was added a couple of 1 X 2 handles to my brake as suggested by a builder on the forums. This made the job of bending the trailing edges much easier. As with the rudder skin I still had to very carefully finish the bend with my edge former tool. All in the entire job went about twice as fast as with the rudder skin.

Next up is match drilling the control horn weldments and the skins to the understructure.
