[Public-List] Taffrail Question

[George Dinwiddie]

Richard,

They were straight strips, bend to the radius when being laminated. I'd 
guess (without measuring) that these strips are about 1/4" thick.

Do you know if they were all bent into a jig to form the final radius or were they laminated with less or no bend and cut on a jigsaw to form the radius.  If the former can you give me an estimate of how thin each strip must be in order to bend to the radius, hopefully without requiring a steam box.
