Brief Description:  rib deburring - continued... 28 down / 26 left

Tonight I knocked out a few more ribs. The old scotchbrite wheel was getting a little warn out...so a few days ago I ordered another one, and 300 more 3/32" clecos that I will be needing for the wing build. So about 1/2 way thru tonight's build session, my guard dog Izzy went crazy and I knew the UPS man must have delivered the package...Yep, new stuff has arrived - just in time.

I am over the half way point on total rib count - at least as far as the deburring goes. Once the deburring of the main ribs is complete, I will start straightening and fluting to final prep the wing ribs then I can sandwich the ribs between the front spar and the rear spar and make some visual progress!
