Wing - Ribs
Finally finished deburring all of the wing ribs. Total time was 39 hours. That has to be a new record for slowness. I checked all of the RV6 and RV7 websites, and most sites do not give hours worked, but the longest that I saw for this task was 25 hours, and I think that included the fluting. Most sites listed 4-10 hours. At this rate, I'll take 6000 hours to build this plane!
The last rib! Man, my hands and fingers ache. | |
All done! Now I get to start all over again, and do the fluting and straightening. |
