Default RE: Building a built-up pattern stab and wing

This thread has been a real inspiration for me. I've been out of the hobby for 10 years or so and building techniques have change a bit! My Zlin has a near symmetrical airfoil at the root and and is under cambered at the tip with a good amount of washout. Seeing the building jig has inspired me to use the outside of the ribs (the part you throw away) to build a jig and then use the poly-u glue to bond the skin to the ribs. I was worried about how to go about this. Not anymore!
