Lay the vertical stabilizers on the table with the bottoms facing you with the rudder cut lines 
nearest each other.  Carefully crack the rudder along the rudder line or use a straight edge ruler 
and a hobby knife to cut down the rudder cut lines in order to separate the rudders.  Remove the 
lower rudder extension below the control horn slots using the same technique.

Lay the rudders on the table with the leading edge facing you.  Use a straight edge ruler and a 
hobby knife to cut an approximate 45° bevel into the leading edge of the control surface, ensuring 
that you have a left and a right rudder.  The bevel will face away from each other when installed on 
the plane. 

If you choose to use a glue hinge for your surfaces ensure you bevel the mating surface as well.

Lay the vertical stabilizers on the table with the bottom edge facing you and the trailing edges 
facing each other.  Use the sanding block to lightly sand the bottom edge of the stabs to cut an 
approximate 68° bevel into the bottom edge of the control surface.
