Original Posted By: Tim Verthein
Ben,I'm still making ribs myself and spent today making sure that I at least finishedthe first half of them in 2006. I'm at the half-way mark now. I made rib#17 to be glued tomorrow so I can start the year on the right note. I saw yourpost and took some pictures while I was building and put them on my websiteif you're interested. I'm no pro but my EAA tech counselor said he'd "give mean A+" on my first interim review. Those are the only credentials I can provide[Laughing]--------Glenn ThomasN?????http://www.flyingwood.comRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Mon, 1 Jan 2007 04:16:08 -0800 (PST)
