Re: 55 Wagon Progress
Laying out the ends for trimming.....
Here's the piece we'll use to cut out the profile blocks, 3/4 thick steel
As I am fresh out of good band saw blades, these were used....
The lower piece was tapered at the bottom as the bottom of the lift gate tapers in below the bead detail..
.....like so.....
Not perfect, but should work just the same...
Clamped in the vise.....
Then some heat is applied, and hammered the high spots..
Fitted.....
and the other end......
Hope to test fit everything tomorrow before all the parts get media blasted..
