Bottom surface glued, shrunk and nitrate doped successfully. Bad news however as shrinking caused warpage of root and tip ribs near the trailing edge and well as along the trailing edge. This will be prevented on the next wing with triangulation reinforcements. Top surface was then glued on making sure not to pull it too tight to allow for fabric to shrink and not add the the warpage. Came out good, next is to shrink and nitrate dope the top surface and apply finishing tapes.
