No Harrison. I thought it over and I think you have to use your fingers for that. But firstly prepare a piece of plastic plate.It can be a phone card etc....it is needed for keeping some Superglue in order to take a drop of it on a needle. OK?
 
Harrison when this is all done I think we can say that Wojek "took you by the hand and walked you through the dark Forrest".You are getting a good tutorial here.Cheers kevin
 
So OK. If you are ready....put the plastic plate and the needle close to you on the desk. Catch the model with your two fingers of your left hand ( the thumb and the first finger) at the yellow marked area..The thumb is from above and the first finger from under.the rest fingers can uphold the model from underside. Check if the edge of the upper half of the wing at its root is at the same level with the edge of the wing-fuselage transition.If yes squeeze your fingers stronger to get the setting stable.Holding the model in this way put some Superglue on the plastic plate with your right hand.Then put the glue bottle away and take the needle.Get a drop of the glue at its tip.And them apply it at the first red marked area and then at the two next.Try to apply the glue into the gap but not all around..If the glue on the plastic plate got hardening put some fresh glue there again still holding the model with fingers.Wait untill the glue is hardened in the gap.. Is that clear for you Mate?

Looking very good to me. Is the wing set correctly now? I mean whether the edges ( both the trailing and the root ones) of the upper half of the wing are OK. ANd what about the wing dihedral, is that the same for both wing halves ?
 
Yes it is. The only other part that needs glue is back edge. I must go now though, need to get ready for school!

Many many thanks for your help tonight! Have a nice night!
 
Nice. Well done Harrison. So, to finish the work you have to apply a drop af the glue as you did it to the another side at the back edge.

Sleep well. Tomorrow you have to sand these areas again and it should be the end of the work on these areas.
