Getting ready to build another set of wings for my S2E. The nose ribs are the first parts I'm going to cut/route. I'm using 1/4" 5 ply mahogany.
I read on 2wings.com that the grain direction really does not matter for rib gussets. (There is a "best" way. But, it's not necessary.)
But, for the nose of the rib, does the wood grain have to be in a particular direction? I'm kinda guessing the grain direction should be parallel with the chord.
