Nice work GB!

Well done!

What do you pin yours with Phil Question

I must admit to never pinning any hinges yet Embarassed

But have gently tugged the control surfaces before to find the hinge tabs working loose to my horror affraid

so out comes ye olde super cyno but can make the hinges very stiff and messy with over spill Embarassed

I use cocktail sticks from my pina coladas What a Face

Drill vertically down both sides of the hinge, epoxy a cocktail stick through each hole,
then trim. Never fails. Gonna do the small Spitfire today. Will photo.
