Brief Description: slight bend in trailing edge of elevator skins
slight bend in trailing edge of elevator skinsUsed Cleaveland tool to bend. Unfortunately, I had already dimpled parts. Key is to bend, then re-dimple if rivet won't sit flush per Steve Blank (Thanks!) I dimpled the trailing edge of my elevator before putting the slight bend the trailing edge. If you doubt the quality of the dimple after adding the bend, simply drop a rivet in the hole and see if it will sit flush. If not, dimple it again, much easier before assembly. It you try to hit a rivet a little harder later to make it site flush, you will dent the skin just forward of the aluminum wedge piece on the trailing edge. Ask me how i know!
