Hi Bob,



 If you do cut off to much metal on the inboard end of a wing, it is easy to add a strip from the last rib to the final position you want.  Actually, this is a lot easier than cutting the existing skin since you can fit a template to the fuselage (I like styrene plastic sheet for this)  and later position it to drill for the rivet line on the inboard rib.



 If you make a nice edge to the "Fairing" it looks like you planned it all along.

Bob,

 

 >From the fattest part of the bottom of the wing at the bottom of the tip plate is approximately 4' - 5".  Geive me a couple of hours and I'll send you a narrative of how I did it along with a drawing and photo.
