I have a set of plans somewhere. Give me a few days to find them and I'll see if there's a pattern on them.

I'll look for my plans as well.
Here's the rib scanned. The vertical one should print as is.
I scanned the ruler to make sure you get the right size.
The rib measures 1/32 shy of 7 and 1/2 inches long.
1 inch high at the spars.

From the plans.

Just in case the rib from the plan scan doesn't print to an accurate size, here's dimensions of the finished rib.
Outside max chord....8 and 3/4 inch
Max outside height....1 and 1/8 inch

I live about one hour from you.
I could bring up the plans if you like.
I also fly into Concord a lot, could meet you there.
