Fit HS to fuselage, then removed it to drill the additional tail deck pieces in place. Need to mix up some primer for touch up.
I made the bushings by chucking the tubing stock in my drill press, and trimming them with a hacksaw. Fine tuned the length with a file, then reduced the diameter a few thousandths. Clamped the bushings in a vise with soft jaws, then drilled through the center, starting with a #12 drill, stepping up 1/64th at a time to 1/4”.
