I agree with Jack Phillips, make the ribs first. They are easy to do once the jig is made up. I ended up making one rib a night using T88. I fyou use epoxy, remember to coat the inside of the gusset with epoxy before you adhere it to the rib. That way you don't have to brush on the finish coat in those hard-to-reach places after the rib is completed. And get Tony's books if you don't already have them. Jeff in in cold and sleeting Texas. It's warmer in North Bay, Ontario.________________________________________________________________________________
