Well.......
I bent and glued in the first layer of the 1.5mm finnish birch. Didn't even have to steam it, just bent it around my buck. Today I am going to do a couple layers of chopped glass mat, and maybe the outer skin. I did test a chunk of the birch, submersing it in hot water. VERY flexible, I bent it to about a 2 inch radius. Cut the birch to shape using a utility knife. Was afraid that a saw would have ripped it to pieces. Kevin |
