Assembled horizontal tail.

Shaping the leading edge.  Use soft balsa for this and wing leading edges.  I have a pine border around the edge of my building board surrounding
ceiling tile.  This allows me to use that edge to support the sanded part so I don't break it during sanding and it is easier to get the proper
angle to hold the sanding bar.  The trailing edge of the stabilizer also has to be sanded to fair with the ribs using the same method.
