Brief Description:  Profiled Horizontal Stab Part 16 T25 Rib

Most of the day spent running errands, but I did squeeze in a bit on the airplane. After a stop at the Home Depot Areospace Supply Center for some oak, I made a wood form block for the rib to try that method out.

It worked fine, but it did stretch a bit and made a slight bow, but that would be easy to take out. I also milled the steel block to help make the 45deg angle along the edge of the rib. It came out nice so far and it's just about done.
