I had to extend my work bench to get the wing over the table. I took the plywood scabs(seen in a pic. from the last post) and butt glued them to the aluminum. Then I glassed both sides with 2oz. cloth. I plugged them into the fuse and jigged up the wing where I thought it looked right. Some people were saying 4 degrees dihedral so that sounded reasonable to me. Once it was there I marked the plywood on the top and bottom at the wing surface. I then removed everything and remarked the lines on the plywood another 1/8" smaller then capped it with 1/4" balsa. I reinstalled the plug ins into the fuse with some cling wrap between them and the fuse. To make the cling wrap less clingy and make it lay flat I just got it dusty from the work table and the floor. I then smeared on some urethane glue and repositioned the wing. where there was a bit more of a gap I stuck in some balsa scraps. Soon after the glue worked as advertised and started expanding out of the cracks. now all I have to do is let it cure and then grind it down flush with the surface of the wing.
