Hey guys, Guess what? I'm on my first trim tab! I think it's going to be fine, too (I made riblets - way too easy. What's with the bends? I didn't even try).
Anyway, I aligned the hinge per the plans - at least I think - and drilled them. When I disassembled the hinge, I realized that the holes are too close to the edge (?). What's the story? Did anyone else have this problem? Did I align it incorrectly, and if so how are you supposed to align it?
