Hello all,

I have searched and found quite a bit of info on wood leading edges. My question for those who have retrofitted: Did you reduce the size of the rib by 1/16th as well as the thickness of the filler piece between the ribs? Thus allowing a smooth transition between the new leading edge material and the existing rib.

Thanks for your time.

Dave
