  • Form Blocks, just about complete......

    Based on my build log, I'm just under 24 hours into making the form blocks, based on the MDF dust I've created, you'd think I've turned an entire 4x8 sheet into nothing but beige dust.. Anyway, forms are all done, still need to mark flute and rivet locations on the form blocks. Still not sure If I'm going to notch the edges to be able to flute into the form block. I'll see how the first few go. I'm hoping to use the same form block for both left and right flanged ribs.

    image_11031.png Looks great! I'm just curious: do your plans say anything like this about trimming the nose ribs?

      I'm guessing it's strictly an LSA detail.
