Waiting…

Well, I placed my first order for wood from Aircraft Spruce.  I ordered what should be enough spruce capstrip stock to build all f the wing ribs.  Should be here in a couple of weeks.  I guess I wasn’t thinking…  maybe I figured they kept this stuff in stock.  If I’d known there would be a 10-day lead time, I’d have ordered it two or three weeks ago.  Live and learn.

In the mean time, there’s not a lot to do.  If it warms up at all I may try to rip some 1/2 by 1/4 stock out of pine and get the saw set up to groove the rib capstrips.  I’d love to finish up the rib jig before the wood gets here.
