Default Help ? straighten Fuse sides?

Tiger 60 kit.

I glued the fuse doublers around the wing area with titebond and when I dry fit everything the fuse sides both bow to the right....
While this may help with right turns its not what I want...
I sprayed lightly with water and wieghted it flat overnight but itstill bows right.

3-4 builds and I havent run into this before..

Is this a defect in the wood?
If they bowed in opposite directions they would cancel out.

How common is this? Will it pull together when glued up?
If I wet and bend in the opposite direction can I get the bend out?

Thanks for any help..

I'll move onto the wing for now..
