Putting the pieces together
1.
Use a small bead of thick CA glue on the remaining slot, located on the leading edge of
each of the wing ribs.
2.
Align the balsa stick with the outside edge of the wing, pushing it gently into place in
the slots.
3.
Hold the leading edge in place until the glue cures, and cut the leading edge flush with
the inner rib then sand the edge from root to wing tip, in order to match the profile of
the wing rib. There will be extra wood overhanging the wing root that will need to be
trimmed so that both sides are flush with the outside, as shown below.
