Dustin, I just hold the rib in one hand and a red sharpie in the other and use my finger as a guide to mark the center. Saves time and is easy to gauge. After all, we're not building a watch !
I've had the plans for some time but was working on modeling the plane in 3d CAD first in case I wanted to change some things and have a better idea how it was built. You out of Dubuque? What plans do you have?
Yes I'm still building....the plane is on the gear and I did a static fit of the horizontal. I need to figure out what powerplant to go with so I can get the mount installed.
