I just completed this a week or so ago and I thought this might be beneficial to others...
The idea of countersinking the rudder wedge caused me a little concern. It was probably the stories I've been told of botched parts (sometimes multimple times), or maybe it was the fancy drilling jigs I have seen pictured on other people's web sites. In the end, my concerns were unfounded, as I found the task to be largely mundane.
I certainly can't take credit for this method, but I can't remember where I saw it. I did however take a few pictures and made a few notes.
Pictures speak a thousand words, so here you go. More pictures and some short notes can be found HERE.
Happy building!
