    Maybe this would be a good additional feature for the Phlat Script?
    Wanting to do a bevel edge for rudder/elevator, ect @ a 45* angle.
    Could someone walk me/ future others through.
    Much thanks,
    RC of the North

    I used to use the TAB tool. Now I use the Centerline one

    sides are 99% and then I step the hinge ones 70%-50%-25%- tape the top and a light sand on the bottom and they are good to go.

    I have done both 1/16 and 1/8 on a 1/8 bit I like the 1/16 better less sanding and the 1/8 more sanding but a little wider.



    E-T :D
