Hi all, I'm a first time builder embarking on my first project, a plans-built Corben Jr Ace. I will have a lot of questions as I progress which I intend to post in this thread. Hopefully people will have some answers that they're willing to trade for progress updates. First question is about built up ribs.
The Jr ace has ribs built from 1/4" x 1/4" capstrips with 1/16" ply gussets. I'm assembling with T-88 and aircraft nails. I'm curious how much of an issue there is with the nails splitting the intercostals?
