Brief Description:  Checking the radius of the elevator bend.

Checking with a flat edge (metal ruler in this case), I had to make sure that the radius of the bend happened at the end of the elevator with a flat surface all the way to the end where the bend starts. First check, I had to much curve to the elevator before the trailing edge. I used the seamer to _very_ gently squeeze the fold and test again. Some parts of the fold had some very slight bulges which were pretty easy to sqeeze narrower.
Checking again with the flat ruler, it looks fine. Flat all the way to the end where it's bent.
