Default RE: Monocote

Yes I understand, but with the shape of the elevator with the corners, ribs, and compund curvesetc this "jig" I made just made it that much easyer, it is good for those small odd shaped parts, almost like vacu-forming the covering to the part, but you push from underneath instead of sucking the covering onto the part. I could just about get the covering all the way around the tip of the elevator with nary a wrinkle, from there I justpullit free of the jig and either pull the covering around the rest of the tip, or just cut it as far around the tip as Icould get it wrinkle free, and use a 1/8 inch stripon thetip,not one wrinkle. I will post some pics.
