I'm working on the center section for a Hatz. The trailing edge of the
center section is a recurved lamination that provides better access to the front cockpit. I've steamed and clamped the strips into a form, and they have taken on some of the curve, but when I unclamp 'em after they dry, I get significant springback. The question is whether I need to allow for this in the finished lamination, or whether the springback will go away when I glue up the assembly? FYI, the lamination starts as four 3" x 1/4" strips. Thanks in advance, Kyle Boatright |
