Drawings for GE Cup Model Hood Frame

[tom abernethy]

Many Thanks to the generosity of all
Who have submitted information about this tricky component.
I take it these sticks would have been steam bent?
I’m looking for the long narrow hinges but they are hard to find
Though some yacht ( hatch cover) ones may do but are a bit dear
I guess they need to be no more than 3/4” wide, but reasonably long.

Hi Bill ,
The hood sticks are not steamed just cut across the grain in the curve. It would have been too expensive and time consuming to steam. The hinges are a pain to make but fairly straightforward.
