Manual Reference:  Sec 29 - Side skin
Brief Description:  Bending the mid fuse side skins

Earlier I had fab'd a clamping block that I made out of 2 pieces of 1x4 oak glued together that I got at Home Depot. I then used my table saw to shape it to the demensions called out on the plans. Fast forward and I'm now to the point in the plans where I need to bend the skins. I constructed tge roll angles first. I then clamped the skin down with the clamping block (really?) attached the roll angles and commenenced to bending. For me, this is one of those tasks that is actually easier in practice than the description of it in the plans would lead you to believe. I checked the initial bends by laying my electronic level across the top of the roll angles with the goal of acheiving 30 degrees.
