RE: Proctor Mini Anti-Bipe (with mods) Build Thread
The first step is to cap each of the 36 wing ribs, a very tedius task. I tried using pinning things in place but I couldn't get the caps tight engough to the rib. Luckly the kit comes with one rib already capped, so I made a jig by tracing the completed rib on a 1/4" thick piece of balsa and cut it out with my scroll saw. I hinged one side of the jig with a CA hinge and can lock it in place with two clamps. The nice thing about the jig being made from balsa is that the clamps really tighten the jig down. I made a few marks for alignment and since the jib has no base, I'm able to glue both sides at the same time. I'm just using Elmer's glue and it seems to be going well. I now have about 6 ribs done but there are still many to go.
