I sawed off a thin wedge from one side ( 7 tooth hardwood blade on my bandsaw) and further trimmed to fit for full aileron travel. I counter sunk my 8/32 NAS screw holes and Hysoled the whole mess down to the leading edge flange. No bid used. The screw threads and a bit of the missle nuts had to be ground off for travel. It looks great and should be super strong. I wonder how close this is to the new part # 1110? Also, Rob, I would test a Vernatherm on a hotplate in turbine engine oil with a good candy thermometer. It works!
