Brief Description:  Bending the rudder

Started with building the "bending tool" I used 2 x 6, but placed it in the workmate, leveled it and had close to 12 inches for the bottom of the skin. Went in stages and felt the skin "bending". Have a nice radius and it marries up with the spar nicely.

The two handles make it an easy bend.
