Making the Rudder Ribs
I got the rudder ribs cut out today, I tried the first one with the router and a straight bit, I can not see how you can free hand with it, it seems to grab the wood and pull it depending on the grain.
I managed to get them cut very nicely on the scroll saw, it was a little tight on room but I made it work and after they got sanded smooth they came out great.
I looked around and found a 2" hole saw marked the center with a punch and drilled out the pieces with a old 2x4 on so the back didn't get messed up. I'm saving all of the parts that get drilled or cut out to save weight and putting them in a box, I'm curious to see how much weight gets saved.
