Elevator is used as a negative. I've put a tape on the elevator where the elevator mount is going to be, applied few layers of glass fibers and immediately a layer of microbaloon. Then I've placed the elevator mount on the elevator.

After it dried, I drilled holes for the elevator mount, roughly cut it and draw the position. On the places where screws will be I inserted small tubes and on the upper side a piece of plastic tube and glued it.
