Brief Description:  Fabricate W925CL (3) and cut WW925BL (3)

Need to cut angle aluminum to make 3 W925 C (L&R) that attach to W925A flap bracket.
Also need to cut angle on W925A (L&R) to match angle on W925C.
measuring and double checking, clamping and marking, double checking again - and then cutting.
Test cuts on scrap did not even look close...
epiphany - angle of cut is only on side of aluminum angle!
Test cuts with scrap, after trying to cut an angle across both sides gave a really bad angle.
Test fits, and re looking at plans made me realize that where the angles meet the top part is even its only the sides that need to be 'cut in'.
ALSO not a 90 degree cut - skin/rib to rear spar angle is >90.
Finally got a system going using scrap 1x1 wood to support while running through band saw. Worked very well.
