More Edge Prep on the Wing Ribs - For the first part of my edge prep process I use the medium grade Emery Cloth, the one between the P240 and P60, and a small wooden block to do the top edges of all of the flanges. This removes all of the tooling marks and makes the surface nice and smooth and flat, but still leaves a sharp edge on the flanges.

More Edge Prep on the Wing Ribs - I then use the double edge deburring tool, second from the right, to remove the sharp edge from the flanges. I use the multi-burr tool, far right, to remove the sharp edges from the holes in the webs. I finished these two processes on all of the wing and tank ribs today.
