31 J-3 Cub Excess Wood in the Stab

I didn't do much on the Cub today as I was not feeling up to it. However, I did accomplish one task. Mike Midkiff sent me a message several days ago suggesting that I make the lighten holes shown below in the stab's center section bigger to eliminate all of that excess wood.
 
 
If I made the holes bigger, they would extend out beyond the fuselage stab mount. The excess wood is really all outside the fuselage stab mount on the edges. So I decided to carefully remove a 1/4" strip from each of the outside edges, which also removes excess wood where it not needed as shown below.........................Tandy
