Brief Description:  Forming wing ribs

When the metal is about 60 degrees it begins to be more wavy, that is the time to begin putting in the crimps. I just used the handle of a small hammer as a forming tool and tapped it into the reliefs, just like it showed on the "Scratch Building Basics for Metal Aircraft" DVD from HomeBuiltHelp.com
