Brief Description:  Formed side skins and prefit skins

Formed side skins by clamping skins to the workbench with an angle and then clamping a back to back angle to the free edge. Then just free-hand bent the free edge to the proper conical adius. most of the bending force needs to be applied to the big radius end. The small radius just follows along. Bending and twisting was pretty easy. Test fit-up the side skins. It took a couple of tries of bending and fit-ups to get it just right.
