Brief Description:  Drilled and shaped ribs

Big day today. First, I spent about two hours picking up all jig pin alignment holes from my forming blocks onto my rib blanks. I think the worst ones were the smaller ribs (Aileron Nose, Aileron Pocket, and Flap Nose) as I had to drill relief holes at all flange points.

The remainder of my shop time was spent at the router table making a HUGE mess. I got smart this time though. The nose rib mess taught me a lot. I had large pieces of cardboard and tarps stretched up to keep the mess centrally located. Made Sunday cleanup much easier. Still a freakin' mess though.

I was able to rout:
- 4 Back
- 16 Aileron
- 18 Flap
- 4 false
- 2 full size (woohoo!)
- 8 center

Then it was dinner and family time, so I turned out the lights for the night.
