Continuing on....

I was ready to secure the wing to the wing mount but before I could do that I needed to split the wing mount into two halves. Each half of the wing mount would be adhered to a wing half. The first photo shows the wing mount cut into 2 pieces and pinned into place.

I just realized a minor correction to my previous post. I used the trailing edge of the rudder as my reference point for getting the fin vertical.

To be sure the that wing wouldn't get mounted with yaw, I put a pin on the top center of the fin and measured the distance from the pin to the leading edge of each tip rib. A very slight shift of the wing was all that I needed. Reluctantly I used CA to adhere the wing to the wing mount.
