Finished the aft fuselage skins and attached the pieces. It was great to pull out the rudder from the upstairs closet.

I ended up having to do quite a bit it molding of the elevators leading edge to make sure it didn't rub on the attachment brackets.
One cool tool (see picture below) my mentor made was built out it PVC pipe and really made installing and adjusting those rod bearings a lot easier.
I also purchased a light duty torque wrench (range 10-110 foot-lbs) so the accuracy for the bolts on the attach point was better.
In addition I ordered all new hardware from aircraft spruce so that when I am done with all the adjustments I will will replace the hardware with the final hardware from the new set.
