Brief Description:  ribs

10/1 Drove to Peachtree City, picked up ply for ribs and skins

10/3 Cut out paper rib templates

11/15 cut rear spar

11/29 Cut larger than normal lighning holes in rib 15 so I look into wing easier down the road. Rinforced rib with carbon fiber

12/13 Starting outline of Left wing, making ribs and putting them in as i go.

12/14 Worked on Left ribs 24 &36

12/21 Cut out and epoxied left 48 & 60

WEST brand epoxy says for waterproofing apply minimum 2 coats epoxy and do not thin. I have been coating entire rib when applying cap strips, then sanding between cap strips to apply second coat. This time I epoxied rib both sides, let dry, sand, then coat entire rib when putting on cap strips. I think I like this better, need to do a few more to be sure.

12/22-30/14 cut out ribs, mostly working on cap strip, putting in place
