Part #2 Flaps




To radius each rib stub on the top portion of the flap recess I made a simple plywood template. This will duplicate consistency in shape and size on each rib stub. Note the small chamfer on the right corner, this is to allow for any left over glue (from some sloppy builder ) that would otherwise prevent the template from fully seating.




Template is in position, use a pencil and mark the radius on each rib stub.




Template has done its job, each stub is uniformly marked.




I'm using my Dremel tool to grind away the lions share of what's needed to be removed. I absolutely love my Dremel, it is a must have tool for every builder...




I wrapped sandpaper around a deep socket and sand to the pencil line.




Tedious work, but the sanding on this one's done... Stay tuned for Part 3.
