Greetings all...

wondering if there is a best practice for glueing up some samples with the glue after making a rib or some other join?

I have just been cutting some capstrips up or glueing some off cut ply or the ice cream sticks I used to mix the glue. No surface prep or nice clean joint like the ribs/trusses I have been making.

In hindsight I suspect this might no be the best idea and perhaps I should have taken more time on the samples?!!?
Been making about 5 or so per rib.
