Dear Group, All rib members and gussets are cut, sanded, fitted, labeled, andsorted. Assembly begins in a few hours. I estimated 2 days cutting woodand seem to be right on schedule. I plan to use dead-weights rather thanclamps. This should allow a faster assembly time. With the six jigs, Iam shooting for 2-3 weeks on completing the ribs, but I still must feedmyself so we'll see. Knocking off 30 mins early to clean everything eachday eats up the drive time I'm saving had I chose a nearby shed for thebuild. But it sure feels good to work in air-conditioning. I purchased a digital camera to document with but one of thecomports on my mainboard is bad, so I can't back them up on my computer.I shall fix it soon or save them elsewhere. More later.Dannymac________________________________________________________________________________
