last night I spent my time fashioning a new routing template for the aileron ribs. After cutting and sanding to the best of my ability, I noticed that something was "off".
I had forgotten to add the 9/16 flange area to the template.
I'm posting in this forum waaay too often.

Add another log to the fire
time to add another screwup to the list. This time not only did I mangle two center ribs I damaged my form block in the process.
As I was routing out two of the .032 center ribs the high speed bearing seized and dug into the formblock and into the flange area of the ribs I was routing.
It didn't go in far, but the ribs are gonners I think. *sigh* September has been a bitch of a month so far for buiding.
