I fully respect that a lot of y'all are way over my current building experience level, but I still have observations that seem undeniable... one is, balsa moves around like a barometer. I don't have much environmental control in my shop, and my wing skeletons remain uncovered through seasonal changes. I've jigged, and I've built loose on the flat table top. Not only does humidity cause shape changes, but so does sanding. Especially the radical sanding of a square half inch LE dowel. Fibers holding its original shape get released, so even with the jig forcing it to remain straight, removing the jig allows everything to sproing into its comfortable new form, and that leaves you with some twists and turns.
I think the best thing to do is to spray it with ammonia Windex while it's still jigged. It's my understanding from reading many build articles and threads that the ammonia weakens the lignin connective tissue allowing the wood to relax into the forced shape from the jig. Upon drying, the lignin regains its strength holding the wood into it's jigged shape... or at least close to it.
Before installation, I always place a pair of 36 or 48" CF tubes between the spar and TE, then step back 15' and eyeball them to confirm they're parallel. Any deviation is small and can usually be forced out with another shot of Windex and some over-twisting, taping it into that shape overnight till the ammonia dries, and so far Mine always come out straight. I do the CF rod test in different areas. First between each halve's tip rib and root rib, them finally one rod on each tip for a final check. That ensures that if only one of the two sides is out of shape, you don't go twisting both panels to straighten it. It's always a happy feeling when both rods finally lay parallel. If it's a non-sheeted LE, you can also place the rods between the spar and LE for an even more accurate assessment.
This always works for me, and I rarely have to try and force out a slight twist with the covering... yes, I'm still a Monokote hack.
I have pictures, but my alarm rings in 130 minutes, Yaaaawn. In case my description is unclear, I'll find the pics tomorrow afternoon.
