Schelin Shrinks a Reverse Curve: Video
Hi all.
Last week I was at Wray Schelin's shop in Connecticut working with a class to wheel panels for a custom car. Wray showed us how to shrink a reverse curve on a specially shaped log. The steel is 19 gauge. As usual, Wray's make it look so easy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK-vdlTvBHI The part made is the front of a wheel arch and the reverse curve flows out to become the fender flare.

Interesting, especially for aircraft parts where one needs to maintain the material thickness.

Wray's 3 day class is on my wish list! Everything I have read about it makes me want to take even more!

Gene Olsen showed this some time back also. There is an artsy name for it but I can't recall what it is.
Wray did something similar back in 2002 at Formfest 02. We needed to do a shrink in the middle of the door skin for for Les Edmonson's ZM2 roadster. He took a couple piece of OSB, carved a wedge out of them and used that to create a shrink. Blew me away.
