Tony, what method did you use to make the channel for the angle iron in the front wood piece? It looks to be about 1/8" deep.
I studied the bend in my rear roof panel today, and think I came up with an easy solution to repair it. We'll see this weekend...
Thanks again!

I got a very good local furniture restorer to make the timbers David. Just ran out of time and would have had to buy tools I do not have for the one project. Anyway, he did a great job, it was even made out of a Canadian timber.
Long and short is I cant tell you how he did that channel.... sorry.
I can tell you the channel is the width and depth of the metal piece it bolts up to (see last picture in my previous post)..
