I forgot to say I figured out the bending thing for today, might not work tomorrow. It seems that I was over cooking the ribs. Around 8 minute's or so for 1/4 x 3/4 red oak. Some of them bent so nicely, it was fun. Out of 24 ribs I only broke 3 not too bad.
This is our grandson's boat. The second on I've made him as he out grow's them as fast as I make them.
