 Still sanding and sanding and sanding......
I have finished sanding and fluting 8 of the 30 main ribs in both wings. It takes me about 20 minutes to do one rib. 22 more ribs to go.... hmmm.... that means it will take me... no, I don't want to think about it. I remember how frustrated I got with how long it took me to sand and flute the tail kit ribs. That ain't nuthin' compared to this.

 Sanding them holes
This sponge sandpaper really makes doing the holes easy (somewhat). Since the sponge naturally contours itself around whatever your sanding, it makes the edges nice and round. When I get to the smallest hole in the rib, I just insert the yellow 320 grit sponge into the hole and start twirling it around in a circle.
