Mark a centreline on the rudder hinges using a pencil, as shown in the photo, then
push the hinges into the slits in the fin to a depth of around 1 mm.
Push the hinges into the fin as far as the pencil-line, and glue them in place with
cyano-acrylate (“cyano”). It is best to use a syringe to apply the adhesive between
the hinge and the wood on both sides, as shown in the picture.
Allow the glue to set hard, then insert the hinges in the slits in the rudder to a depth
of about 1 mm once more.
