9. Repeat steps 1-8 for the other wing half.

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.
