I'm sure a lot of them would be aghast that you have already made a foam wing & fuse, just to be cut...

CP
Cutting a foamcore wing just to slice rib templates is almost as bad as getting up on a saturady & lasering off a set of ribs in your shop. [8D].

On the cutter, I know we talked about it...

How about mounting the Drone on a piggyback rail on the TwinFever,

Did you run rib capstrips over the spars, then capped the spars to match?
Or are those Sub Skin level spars?
Maybe its just the photo, you got a close pic of the capstrips we can oggle?
