Default Very good work

Hi Jordan

Excellent work, couple of questions:
How thick were your oak strips?
What glue did you use?
Did you form and glue in one step, or did bend them first then put glue on and clamp?

Last when you cut the roof taper did it give you a second spacer?

Your pictures and discription has added to the CMP knowledge base, now how to make the hip ring spacer is there to be followed by others.

Strange you should post this now, last week had a bunch of 1 inch wide 12 inch long 1/8th thick oak strip left over from a project. So I decided to try a compound bend just wetting then glueing with Gorilla Glue. Was surprised how sharp and strong the bends were once the glue was dried.

Cheers Phil
