    Some of the RV folks swear by these tools to get washers in place. https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catal...et12-04723.php

    However, how the heck does one get this thing back together once these subassemblies are covered with fabric? That is, the covering instructions, have you remove the horizontal stabilizer and elevator, and the rudder for covering, and I'm already not looking forward to struggling with the bolts, washers and nuts for reassembly. Can anyone share secrets and tricks to help make that doable and easier?[/QUOTE]


    Here is how I did it. Starts about 6:20 on this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEYoRrcpdrw&t=130s
