Default RE: building the Proctor Nieuport N28

the only time consuming area in constructing the stab and the rudder is to punch holes in the ribs to slide the rods thru....nothing looks worse than a bunch of misaligned spars eh?
what i came up with was this simple jig in which i slide the rib in place and drill holes through it with predrilled holes in the jig.............i'd like to see other ideas as well so i hope anyone who has one of these under construction jumps in.
