I haven't been able to figure out what everyone does to allow the elevator
horn to be put inside the covered tail section of the fuse.

Access door/panel where horn enters fuse?

Circular hole in fabric, insert horn into fuse, rotate onto stab and insert
bolts, reach in through fin access door and bolt together arms and pushrod?

No rush, but while I am covering the smaller parts, I'm wondering how you
put those tail feathers together - neatly.

Make a hole a little larger than the elevator horn and tube, about 1"wide x
11/4" high and do as you describe below. You should reinforce the hole area
with a second layer of fabric.

Dave, That's pretty much how I ended up doing it. The holes in the fabric were reinforced with 0.016 aluminum glued to the fabric and covered with a fabric patch. A hole on both sides of the fin makes it easier to install and safety the nut holding the elevator horns and pushrod end together.
