With the radius dish clad with sandpaper, the bottom of the sides get
the spherical radius. I forgot exactly what the radius was though...

Tail block
So the tail block is in place, and I put it with the grain "standing
up". But it struck me that it would be easier to shape together with
the sides if it would have been turned 90 degrees. Must ask about this
on some forums.

You can see the scorching on the side to the left, or if it is a
miscolouring from the metal on my bending form.
And I need to decide if the lining and braces should be from the same
board, or if bass wood and spruce are better.

Sides cut to length
Side number two, which I bent yesterday, turned out fine but a little
scorched on the inside. This surprised me as the heat blanket was on
top. But it is possible to sand so now I've cut the sides and aim for
glueing the blocks after the kids have gone to sleep. Or maybe tomorrow.
