Deburred all the parts for the stab (except the holes that needs to be match drilled). I also cut out the elevators from the stock Xenos "ruddervators". Left a 5 mm oversize on the root to be able to trim to correct size.
The tip ribs have this groove. I measured it to be 0.7 mm. I drilled a hole to stop any eventual stress risers. One of them was quite heavily skewed (wonder what Sonex say about that). The attach angles (T04-12) are oversized and needs to be trimmed to be able to fit flat on the spar.
I have to wait for the hardware, hinges in particular, to be able to work further, so I started to sort out the parts for the vertical stab, an will bend the vertical spar tomorrow as well.
