Angles cut and rib problems

[Originally published on Yahoo! 360°]

Last Sunday, me and my Dad did some more work. We cut the disk to the required angels and cut out the ribs for the top-half of the head. Unfortunately we had some trouble making all the ribs uniform in dimensions and when we test fitted them with the disk, well, they just seemed too short. I was expecting the top-half of the head to be a few inches taller than it turned out, but the ribs are the correct height. I emailed the guy who gave me the measurements for an R6 head for confirmation of those measurements. Either the drawings are wrong, or my perception is off. When I can get back to the shop, I'll recheck everything.
