Centre Leg - curved section idea update.....

Was thinking about the curved sections for R5's centre leg, and that my first plan to carve them out of solid [in my previous post], although genious :-D lol, was also flawed. The fact that it was going to take me ages to make up all four, cut/screw/sand to shape etc... But more importantly, they were going to just add to the weight of R5!! So scanning through my web page favorites, I remembered seeing this idea on  http://podpadstudior6.blogspot.com/ build. Where he used a curved piece of scored hardboard to form the shape. So I will be attempting this way of building them instead.
