Thanks,  Bob: 
>From  your pictures, it looks like you have applied finish to  the panel  
(everywhere but where a  glue joint will be) prior to your glue-up.   Yes?

Will,
 
Yes, one protective coat of shellac  on the ribs and board. Keeps our grubby 
paw prints and glue blobs from  staining the purty board. I expect it would 
glue up as well if we just put one  coat on the whole thing without masking, 
but, you know, anything to reduce  that nasty profit.
 
We fit the ribs to the case, with  little brads sticking up at the ends, 
press the panel down onto the ribs, reach  under the piano and mark the 
rim-to-panel joint. Then remove the board, invert  it, locate the ribs with the pins, 
score lightly the rib-to-panel line (w/razor  blade, not pencil), tape off 
between the lines, shoot shellac.
 
Strip the rib tape, and after the  ribs are glued on and shaped, then we can 
go on with the finish (We use  varnish). Finish the bottom, strip the rim 
tape; finish the top after board is  glued in and trimmed.
 
Bob
