Brief Description:  HS Front Spar; Ribs

Finished assembling rear spar, marked all the parts, then took it apart and piled up the pieces for deburring later.
Assembled the HS front spar. Getting pretty good at trimming metal. Knocked the rust off some of the old trigonometry memory and made me a cardboard template for the 6 degree bends on the front spar reinforcement splice angle pieces. They came out pretty good.
Edge deburred, fluted, and straightened all the HS ribs (except for the inboard ribs, they aren't drilled yet).
Got alot done today, or at least it felt like it.
John Furge came over and took a look around...he says he's going to order a kit after his bathroom is done...I'd lay odds he gets a kit first...

Cardboard template for the splice angle.  Worked well, I got 4 identical bends on the 2 parts.
