Step 5: This step can be confusing. The RV-14 plans have a better diagram of what you're trying to do. After reading a few blogs I found that you're trying to scarf the two top wing skins at the forward corner only to achieve a better fit. I marked the top of the inboard skin and bottom of the outboard skin where I needed to remove material then used a file and sanding block to remove the material. I also had to make a few passes with the Cleaveland edge-breaking tool to achieve an acceptable joint.
