Default TF Giant scale corsair

I have question about building the wing.
I have sheeted the bottom of the wing.
I used the 7/8 spacer under the main spar and the tip spar and T-7 tab touching the table.
Everything looks fine till I turned it over to sheet the top.
If I put the jigs under T-7, the center section is off the table about 1/4 inch.
If I put weights on the center I can get it down on the table and the 3 1/4 block at the trailing edge.
Does this sound ok to you?

Thanks

Once the jigs are cut off, you don't use them again. According to the instructions, you'd do the tip panels first, then the top of the center section, and then the bottom of the center section. The wing should be stable once an entire side is sheeted. Then just block it so it's stable.
