RICHARD’S CAPPING STRIP CUTTER

Members looking for a quick way of producing lots of wing rib capping strips  might consider this solution from a friend of mine.

Hopefully the  attached pictures show that it’s simplicity itself to make and use as all you need is three pieces of plywood: a base plate, a strip matching the  thickness of the balsa capping (5 or 6mm in my case - Ed) and a top cutting guide strip.

No more need to measure each balsa sheet and hope the ruler doesn’t move during  cutting. Just slot the sheet into the groove and cut. Simples J
