Do you dry the ribs, along with the board, prior to gluing ?

Talk about subjective!

And, as I said, I still believe old wood has
some benefits !   Cut me two pieces of soundboard, of
same dimension, and let me hold them in  my hand,
blindfold, and rap on them with my knuckle. I'm quite
certain  I'd be able to tell the old wood, from the
new, instantly. 
( It'd  have  a more "vivid" resonance, whereas the
new wood would be quieter,  and more airy" sounding.   )


Peace,
Thump
