Wing Contour?

Just to clarify, the 1/4 inch ply is "rough cut" as closely as possible and the filler adheres to the wood and gives the smooth surface needed to re-profile? How far back above, and below the wing do you go for a glider you want to perform well?

You understood correctly.
First 10% or so. About 3 inches inboard and 2-1/2 outboard.
Purpose of the templates is to have finished wing with same profile it started with. "Normal" sanding will usually make the leading edge too blunt.
