Default RE: 162

OK here todays progress.

I finally lightened all the ribs. In all I removed a 1/2 lb. That is for both wing panels. Didn't cut number 14. Every little bit adds up.

I have the lite-ply shear webs cut and they lock in place tight. Tomorrow after I sleep on it some, it will get some glue.

I did have to replace the inner rib 6. (that's the break) It was off just a tad. Didn't want it to bite me later. After some careful measuring I saw it was off more than I thought. Got to be more careful.[&o]

Later
