Default RE: repairs for beginners

no problem and thanks for your encourage ment guys.

last night I prepared the flight skin by cuting the oldflight skin off using the creases of the joints. make sure that your cuts are staright and smooth, this will make it easier in the future. next i added the front of a rib by making just the front (up to the spar ) and cut it out with a popsicle stick shape behind it (this is one piece). I glued this on and used elasticks as a clamp. then i glued 2 ribs together before I went to bed so they would be dry after school. its best to do this last at the end of the day to prevent strain on the plane
