❏
1. With the front half of the left wing flat on your
workbench and the center joint on wax paper, raise the right
wing tip 3-1/8" [79mm] to properly set the dihedral. Block the
raised right wing at the desired height and make a mental
note of the position needed for it to maintain that dihedral.
❏
2. Remove the joiner from the wings. Cover the joiner, left
and right wing ribs and pockets in the wing panels with a
moderate, but not excessive, amount of 30-minute epoxy.
Join the wing halves together. Ensure that the left wing
remains flat and that the right wing tip is 3-1/8" [79mm] from
your work bench and can remain that way undisturbed until
the epoxy has hardened. Remove any excess epoxy with a
paper towel and denatured alcohol, being careful not to
disturb the joint. Hint: Use masking tape to hold the wing
together while the epoxy hardens.
