Rick,Pre-Shrink the patch material, then cut the patch to the exact cross sectionof the control horn at the level of the fabric. Slip it over the horn andglue it in place. It might still gap a little, but should be a pretty goodfit. See photo below:Jack PhillipsNX899JPSmith Mountain Lake, Virginia-----Original Message-----

You can shrink the fabric on the wing as much as you want, and let it gap.Then glue down the pre-shrunk patch and don't shrink it any further.Jack PhillipsNX899JPSmith Mountain Lake, Virginia-----Original Message-----
