Brief Description:  Initial preparation of fin skin

Rough cut fin skin out of .032 stk. Folded, clamped trailing edge and pressed leading edge to get a radius that matched the ribs. Getting the proper bend radius took all of my 172 lbs jumping on the board. (Bending the wing leading edge will be fun....not really). Started fitting the skin to the substructure by trimming the lower edge so it will fit against the fuselage.
