The larger molds will be used in cutting the 6061-T6 to size. The smaller ones will be used to shape the actual nose rib.

Hi David

Beware, the corners have to be rounded off to a 3mm radius for the aluminum not to break and the sides need to be 7 degrees inward to counter the spring back. The DVD "101 metalworking" from home build help is a must.

Have also a look at my pages on this site.
