Success!

After researching bending some more, I developed an Excel spreadsheet that automates the bending calculations. Just enter side 1 and side2 lengths, bend radius, thickness, degrees of bend, and K-Value.

I have to say it was very satisfying to see the bend at the end of T03-04 become exactly the same hight as the other sides without any trimming.

I also made some jigs for marking lines 5/32 and 13/32 from the outside edge of the channel.

I was able to complete both T03-04s and T03-06s in 3.5 hours.

I know it's not a race, but I like efficiency. I have a 4 year old boy that needs attention.
