This is for Newbie: on that finger deal full of super glue. try using a piece of masking tape of your finger first. MattK

Well Mike, I got the rib installed right and have some photos to post...




I'm going to have a lot of sanding to do on that leading edge. I think next time I'll put the cap strip on, then sheet, sand and _THEN_ put on the leading edge and sand that. Its a great method, I just for some reason didn't do it and now I'm stuck with doing it on both wing halves.



Yup, my finger after joining the pieces for the sheeting...




So thats it for now, I'll see how it comes out tomorrow. Luckily I called Bokuda before doing the sheeting. I had, in hand, 30 minute epoxy while on the phone with him. He warned and suggested I get 2-3hr epoxy for the working time and thank god I did! It took far longer then I thought to get everything prepared for the sheeting, but with that 3hr epoxy I had plenty of time. I think its actually setting up now I'll post the final result pics tomorrow.
