  Another method is to mark (painter's tape) the inside of the outer rim with the general rib end locations. Next, place a small dollop of Playdough on the inner rim where the notch will be:


  Put some painter's tape on the rib ends to keep them clean:


  Then press the soundboard in place and you will get nice perfectly positioned imprints of the rib ends.


  Notch away. Cean off any dried Playdough residue with a light sanding.


  Easy and very accurate. 

  Oh, and....... FUN!!!!!!!

    Would anyone care to share their technique for locating and notching rib ends into the inner rim?
