Once I’m satisfied with the location of each station, the next step is to contour pieces of angle stock made from 18-gauge steel, with 3/4-inch legs, to match the shape of each station. Since the body is symmetrical, the templates for the stations on one side of the body can be used for the other side by simply making a mirror image. Here, you can see how a stretcher (or shrinker) is used to curve each piece. View Related Article
