Arcraft spruce cap strip options
Posted: Tue May 22, 2018 8:13 pm
I am going to start building ribs for my Pietenpol. I was going to order the cap strips today, but the plan calls for 1/4” x 1/2” cap strip, and Aircraft Spruce and Specialty only sells 1/4 x 7/16 and then jumps up to 1/4 x 5/8... whats the deal? You all been using the 1/4 x 7/16 or 1/4 x 5/8 for your ribs? Also, can anyone give me a quick answer on how much cap strip and how much plywood im going to need for the ribs? Otherwise i can get out my caculator
