Had a tough day working. Every hour or so I had to run outside to see what was flying overhead. The local air museum is having a WWII exhibit. B-17, P-51, Corsair (love that plane) and I think the Zero even took to the skies. Wow!
Way back when I joked about shag carpet and curves. Well, the shag might not happen. I thought I'd try to make our own plywood today. What the heck, if you're going to make plywood you might as well make radiused plywood, huh?
We knew we'd need a 24" chunk and at least a 33-36" piece too. So I thought I'd make a jig that would pull a double duty. It forms a 2 1/4" radius (in theory, that is) by pulling 1/8" plys into the jig using pipe clamps and heavy walled 4" PVC. The 24" piece is setting up now as I type. Maybe tomorrow we can slow down enough to get an action shot.
