Default RE: How do you make good wing saddles?

Here is an old school technique.
Set the wing on the table and brace it up at 0-0.
Set the fuselage over the wing and brace it up at 0-0.
Scribe a line on the side of the fuselage that matches the wing.
Don't sand to the line, just use the line as a reference.
Sand the saddle until it matches the scribed line just above it.
