By Jove I think you've got it!!!!!

Here are the two pictures as promised. Note the amount of dip/sag between the ribs. It's very close to 1/64".



and now compare this picture of the same wing with the ruller placed over the same two ribs. The gap is now just slightly over 1/16".



Now before anyone jumps up and says "But they are different colors and different colors behave differently" let me say right now, they don't shrink THAT much differently. We're talking a 1/64" vs. 1/16" dip over a 3" span!

Does the wing look good? Oh yeah baby! Both top and bottom are very nice. Am I going to hide the bottom at the field? Only during landings I'm not afraid to say this is a good covering job. But, there are differences between the top and bottom and the top simply looks better if for no other reason than the ribs are not as pronounced as on the bottom. Will anyone else notice the difference? More than likely not. But, if you are trying to do the best job possible, you will see the difference and know you could have done better.

How's that?
