Guys I have finished the lower wing that was damaged and am in the process of reassembling the plane. Have the wings on and started adjusting the wires but have noticed a problem that was not there before. Leveled and squared the center section first using plumb bobs etc and then attached the wings. Got the top wings leveled and was adjusting the wires when I decided to pull a string line at the rear of the wing from tip to tip. Even though the trailing edges are level as is the leading edge with the center section the trailing edges are not lining up exactly with the string line. The left wing is about 1/4 inch low at the aileron bay and 1/2" at the wing root. Not sure if I have a put a twist in the wing or if I have missed something this time around. I have never used rigging boards, since I do not have a drawing or measurements on making them, but wondered if anyone has a drawing or sketch you could send me. Maybe I am putting a twist in the wing with the flying wires
