There's been an overlap in production with Rib Pairs 95 and 107 (the last wintips). Process goes:
1. draw up & glue jig
2. cut & wet overnight top and bottom rib pieces
3. shape top and bottom rib pieces to leading edge ply insert
4. cut vertical and diagonal intermediate pieces
5. glue all above together
6. dry overnight
7. cut out ply gussets and glue to rib vertical and diagonal joints
8. turn rib over and cut out and glue gussets for other side
9. simultaneously repeat steps 2-5 for next rib
10. repeat steps 6-8
11. start on next rib steps 1-10 doing step 8 from previous rib
I will get a photo soon of all the ribs laid out! So excited.
Next Looking for materials for the spar jig. But I am having six months down time from the project while I am overseas with work. Starting backn in Oct.
