      The times I've done this there seems to be a fair bit -o- saw dust =
from machining.  After  re-sawing one slice off the slab  each exposed =
face will require a trip thru the planer/jointer  to provide for a nice =
glue joint.  Hey there's waste in any wood milling operation.  Terry has =
a big fat bandsaw though & I hear he's good with it.  Hey Terry, Still =
got all the fingers?

    Right.  I was wondering how it would be less wasteful to make =
laminated
    ribs.  Now I get it.  Curiosity has me asking what kind of stock you =
are
    using to make your ribs, Terry.  How many plies?  How much have you
    experimented with different number of plies, dimensions, grain =
orientations,
    etc?

    This subject is intriguing to me.
