Brief Description:  Rolled Rudder Leading Edge

Rolled and clecoed rudder leading edge. Per other builder's logs, it was definitely easier to roll one section at a time, rather than all three at once. Due to the taper of the spar, rolling starting at the leading edge of the skin as described in the instructions puts the roll too close to the center for the lower part. The further down the rudder, the flatter the leading edge needs to be to get the holes to line up. On the elevators, I'm going to try to roll at a constant distance from the spar.
