I just completed the right wing on my LT-40. Nows its time to join them together. I haven't actually done it yet, but I did a trial fit and it appears to be off just a bit. Included in the kit is a 3.75" dihedral guage. This is to be placed on the left wing tip flush against the last W5 rib and the wing rests of this. This elevates the wing tip to the height proper height to match up with the right wing panel which is flat against the table. In theory, the W1 ribs (which were placed at an angle to allow for this dihedral) should fit flush which each other. Well, mine don't.

The good news is that they come pretty darn close, but only at an angle less than the recommended 3.75". In fact my sanding block is the perfect height. Its about 2.5 inches high. I set it up per the instructions and they don't line up. Not sure how to fix this. I could follow a few steps (subject to replies here) to fix it or I could just go with the 2.5 inch dihedral which seems to work OK. Will this second approach affect anything later down the road?

Here are a few pictures of the wings mating together. These are taken with the sanding block dihedral. I should have taken a few with the 3.75" dihedral, but I didn't. When using the 3.75" dihedral guage, when the wings are bowed up, there is about a 1/4" gap between the bottom main spar ends.....anyway here are the pictures.

Thanks for your input.
