Hi Matt,
Not a biggie at all. Hing the elevators but don't glue them in place yet. Cover with silkspan (or what ever) and paint as normal, cut the the covering away with an Xactor knife from the hinge pocket. Glue the hinges to the stabilizer with PU glue and allow to dry (make sure you wipe off any excess glue on the hinge barrel. Attach the elevators in the same manner only use wax paper between the elevator and stab. Cutting a small slit in the wax paper to slip over the hinge to protect the hinge barrel from glue. You can also use slow drying epoxy but you have the clean off the hinge barrel before it cures or the hinge will be sticky or frozen.
Another helpful hint is to apply Vaseline sparingly to the hinge barrel with a Small paint brush and heat the hinge with a hairdray er. The heat allows the Vaseline into barrel of the hinge. Wipe off and install the hinges. There are a number of ways to do this, but they are all really easy to do.
Later,
Mikey
P.S. I still think that nyLon hinges are the smoothest and quickest way to do hinges. Use the nylon hinges and dope them place. After you have three coats of dope on them, cut small squares of silkspan and dope them in place over the hinge. They almost disappear after the sanding sealer. I’ve used the removable hing pin before and it worked really well.
