Go to your local hobby supply store and buy a block of balsa wood, then start sanding.

After I rebuilt one of my flaperons I used Hysol to fill up the end and shape to a nice rounded end. Yr later and they look just as good as day I did them.

I know in the Kitfox 4 kit and manual, there is a block of blue foam supplied.  You carve the foam, and then cover with epoxy.  Sand and paint, and you're done.  JImChuk
