I'll admit that perhaps I overthought this part of the build, but I really wanted to do this just once. I won't bore you with the details of what I found challenging, but here is my final result. The hinge doesn't leave you any room for fore aft movement of the tab if you want any hope of preserving edge distance on those hinge attach rivets. You basically need to drill directly down the centerline of the hinge flange. Overall, I ended up with exactly 3/32 gap on the outboard edge (min distance per the plans, which I can file open slightly), and well matched inboard edge, and the tab itself sits about 1/32" in from the TE of the elevator. Again, due to the hinge edge distance issue, I don't think I had much control over how this ended up. I'm curious if that's a passable result or if I should have done something different to get a perfectly matched TE. Here are some pics. I can always order some new hinge and try again....
