Brief Description:

Cut out the plywood web for fin rib3. Made some moore test pieces for breaking apart tomorrow morning, using a 50/50 mix of epoxy based J-B Weld and ordinary clear epoxy. This combination seems to penetrate more into the wood, but runs more, reducing it's filling properties. It is possible the combination of these two characteristics may cause glue starvation in the joints....I will know for sure tomorrow. I think a 2/3 J-B Weld:1/3 epoxy would have been better.
