Bonding of Starboard lift pin sockets 13.
Should be good as long as the electric power stays on.
Sweep, skew and angle of wings holding good after 3 hours of heat.
I elected to set starboard wing first because it required some aft lifting with a pump jack to get proper angle. If it twangs off a bit, (probably greater AOA), it should be easier to match port wing because it is pretty much where it should be without influence if starboard wing is set.
I chose to first lift the tip of the starboard wing from the wingtip at the aileron hinge line by 1/4", then am lifting the port wing from the spar by 1/4" when bonding on lift pin sockets. This is to combat what I perceive could be harder removal and insertion of spar pins.
I was initial going to lift by 1/2", but since Nev said to rig in a relaxed state, I chose to cut it in half.
BTW lifting 1/2" doesn't not change AOA, sweep or skew.
