Ok, this may be a bit basic, but I have never built a plane before and was reading through various plans to get a feel before attempting one. TO be totally honest, I am not really even worried about flying the thing at this stage, I just want to build it and will probably give it to the kid down the street or something. The plane I have chosen is either a Travel Air Mystery Ship or a Loving Wayne WR-1. I have large scale plans for both and even have construction drawings of the real planes. I'm fairly intelligent and reasonably knowledgeable about working with wood, so I think the project is within my grasp.

I can figure out pretty much everything, but no where in any model plan I have is there an answer to this. How do you get the roundness on the leading edge of the wing? I can see how to cut the general shape on a table saw, but I don't see how you would get a nice even roundness all the way down. Doing a jig for the wings? No problem. This somehow eludes me.
