A Fairly Unbalanced Account of my homebuilt airplane ... the RV9a from Van's Aircraft.

Gluing the right elevator trailing edge. It is clecoed to a three-quarter square aluminum box section to hold it nice and straight till the glue sets. I got the glue on neatly using a plastic syringe. That worked well, but I would like a less expensive source.

Here is an example of the kind of mistake I keep making. .. The little triangle stiking out past the edge is there because the "apex wedge" between the top and bottom skins is installed backwards. In this case, it really makes no difference. Because the pre-punched holes are so precise, the fit was not bad enough to notice.
