Default Jim Whitley's recommendation in rib cutting.
Daddy Rabbit

"The ribs for the taper wing can be made in one hour once you have the tip and the root rib finished in 1/4 inch plywood. The ribs can be sandwiched between the two finished in this mannor."

- Jim Whitley

Question:

Would not the profile be off because the outboard side of the rib tip template is 1/4" wide?

Does anyone use this technique today with success?
