I'm thinking like making a stick rib.


Maybe try making the rib out of straight pieces, and let the rib truss
lock in the curve for the upper and lower cap strips. I bet that'd
work.

Also, Graphlite comes in a variety of round, square, and rectangular
cross-sections. I think the standard round sections go down to 0.020";
it might not show on the Web but Jim Marske can get it for you.

Thanks, Bob K.

Go to this page on graphlite
http://www.aist-nara.ac.jp/~rieken/projects/composites.html The
stuff is rolled into coils for shipment. Scroll down and check out the
flat version bent by hand into a half circle.
