Where ya from there Peter ??

As to your question, I think you will have to provide us with just a tad
bit more specific information.

As in... how dry did you get the board before glueing the ribs on....
etc.

Tell us the whole story in detail and I am sure you will get the answer
you are looking for

Cheers
