Step 15.
Carefully slide the two wing halves together, ensuring
they are accurately aligned. Firmly press the two halves together,
allowing the excess epoxy to run out. Using rubbing alcohol and
a paper towel, clean off the excess epoxy. There should not be
any gap between the wing halves.
Step 16.
Apply masking tape to the wing joint to hold the wing
together securely while the epoxy cures. Place the wing on a
large, flat surface. With one wing panel lying flat on the surface,
the opposite wing tip should be propped up exactly 1-3/4
′′
from
the surface. Allow the wing joint to dry overnight.
Note:
It is a good idea to place a sheet of waxed paper under
the center joint of the wing so that any excess epoxy
doesn’t adhere to the surface of the work area.
