I'm using them for the cowl screws. Concerning the control surfaces, I think you'll find you aren't removing them often once flying begins unless you plan on trailering your plane frequently. But during the building process you can attach and remove the surfaces with just a few of the screws and don't have to torque them down hard, so you aren't really wearing the screw holes much. I wouldn't bother with tinnermans at these locations. Ed de Chazal >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML homepage: http://www.olsusa.com/Users/Mkaye/maillist.html
