Hey all, might be a silly question but has anybody used a metal shrinker
on the rib flanges, instead of fluting them?
I have not seen a shrinker in action but am curios as to if it can or not.
I am about to start making my ribs, and having trouble working out the flutes to avoid rivets, and thought that a shrinker would solve the problem?
