Hi I purchased the plans for the Fox Side Bender from LMI, I am going to adapt it an remove the lamp cavity as I intend to use a heating blanket.

Has anyone done this?

I would alsolike some pictures of the FSB if there any out there, it would be a handy visual reference for me.

Thanks

John

Hi Todd

Thanks, I have come across your video's before - very informative.

What I can't figure out is the purpose of the Aluminum Cross Bar, does this form some kind of clamp to hold everything together ?

The bar is more of a locator than support. If you try doing a cutaway , without the bar the pattern would move out of position in relation to the waist cawl
