I've seen on Dan's site that he created a slight joggle on the lower flap skin to improve the fit. How is this accomplished? Dan??

Hand seamers.

This is from Avery:
LAP JOINT JOGGLE TOOL
Use for lap joint and inspection hole joggles in aluminum skins up to .032? thick. Steel handle with adjustment slots and precision ball bearing rollers. Fully adjustable for set back (width of joggle) and for different material thickness. Comes ready to use / instructions included.

Depending on how much joggling you plan on doing, you might want to save the $42 and use the hand seamers...

Anybody care to give a little free advice on how to make a nice joggle with my seamers?

Bend it down, move the seamers, bend it up. (Down & up relative to airplane down & up)

Dude, seriously, don't overthink this.

Let me go over this one more time: Down, then up. I better draw up a flow chart first. Thanks bud
