I didnt' mean to elude to the dihedral changing by laying one wing flat while the other is elevated. I understand that the dihedral is what it is at this point. What I meant was that if the jig was built to provide the correct amount of washout with the wing placed on the table the way the plans show, and you change the way the wing is placed from the plans, in affect you change the dihedral in relation to the jig inadvertantly and without changing the jig, could it possibly change the amount of washout you build into it. Perhaps it would be insignificant since the other wing would be done in similar manor afterwards, but why chance it when there are other options?

Like I said, I'm a painter not an engineer. I just figured that if you change an angle of something you have jigged, then you most likely change other angles associated with that.

I'd still find an open floor (or other suitable surface) and use that if I didn't have a big enough table. That's why I'm a painter!
