Today was one of those days where you take one step forward and three back... It all started with the delivery of the mail. I was eagerly awaiting supplies that I ordered. Of course when I opened the box I was sent the wrong items, so off to the post office to re-box and send back! OK, VJ just a minor set-back, you'll assemble the wing's center section. Right, until I notice I'm short one rib!!! I looked everywhere for it, I don't think it was in the kit. No problem, I'll cut my own rib. Oh no, this rib is 1/8" thick, and I don't have the right balsa stock to make it. Stop what I'm doing and jump in my vehicle to buy a sheet of balsa that's 35 minutes away... Sorry for the rant, I feel better now.




The rib that I had to duplicate is the first one on the bottom.
