            You suck Larry... lol, j.k... I like the file trick, cool! Should'a showed me the bending part

            Maybe I'll get the turn fin done tonight so I can deck mine tomorrow.

              I put one side along the table, with weights along an edge about 1/2" into the sponson decking.
              Then I added some clamps for weight along the outer edge to help bend the wood.
              Then I went at it with the heat gun.

              After that one cooled, I did the other one for the other side.

                Thanks. I'll give it a try. I don't like bending wood with hot water when it's a large skin like this. Too easy to mess up the top layer finish.

                  I remember about 10 years ago when I was building one of my N2 Wip's.
                  I made one side, as I was in the middle of the other side, I realized that I was making two right sides.
                  Had to cut a new piece, Although I now had a right side for my next one.
                  Please be careful, and don't do this.

                        I have been working on hardware, drive shaft, and electric, ECT.

                        Now I have to make one of my race cowls for it.

                          Looking good sir! Servo is in weird but I get it. I'm finally getting the turn fin sorted out. I had to buy new threaded rod since the kind that is only threaded on each end just would not work.

                          Do you use wood screws to put in the servo or nuts and bolts?
