Finished! Looks pretty good

I have a nice straight line. One warning to other builders though. The last step of installing the trim tab is to flip the elevator over and bend the flange on the bottom of the trim tab so it won't hit the spar on the elevator. Be sure and clean out any metal shavings that might be between the sheet metal and the spar on the trim tab. I forgot to and now you can see little indentions in the sheet metal from the metal shavings after the bend was completed.
