4) With the stabilizer held firmly in place,
use a pen and draw lines onto the stabi-
lizer where it and the fuselage sides meet.
Do this on both the right and left sides
and top and bottom of the stabilizer.
5) Remove the stabilizer. Using the lines
you just drew as a guide, carefully remove
the covering from between them using a
modeling knife.
When cutting through the covering to
remove it, cut with only enough pressure
to only cut through the covering itself. Cut-
ting into the balsa structure may weaken
it.
6) Using a modeling knife, carefully re-
move the covering that overlaps the sta-
bilizer mounting platform sides in the
fuselage. Remove the covering from both
the top and the bottom of the platform
sides.

7) When you are sure that everything is
aligned correctly, mix up a generous
amount of 30 Minute Epoxy. Apply a thin
layer to the top and bottom of the stabi-
lizer mounting area and to the stabilizer
mounting platform sides in the fuselage.
Slide the stabilizer in place and realign.
Double check all of your measurements
once more before the epoxy cures. Hold
the stabilizer in place with T-pins or mask-
ing tape and remove any excess epoxy us-
ing a paper towel and rubbing alcohol.
