[VAC] Re: Aluminum skin

[Roy Lashway <rlashway@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I had to replace some pieces similar to your problem.  I made a cardboard 
template that simulated the curve and went to  a shop that had some scrap 
aluminum plus a large shaping machine and we bent the piece into shape.  
It was kind of funny watching this guy with a 18" x 20" piece of aluminum 
inserting it manually in this machine designed for 12ft steel sheets 
(made/repaired steel tanks).  Good luck.
