1. Mark the wing joiner and the wing panels so the
joiner can easily be positioned consistently during the
joining of the wings.
2. Slide the wing joiner into the wing panel. Use a pencil
to mark the joiner against the wing. The joiner should fit
snug in the wing. If it does not fit, lightly sand the joiner
until it does fit nicely.
3. Slide the joiner into the opposite wing panel. It should
slide in to slightly hide the line drawn in the previous
step. If not, lightly sand the ends of the joiner until it fits
equally into both wing panels.
