Pneumatic presses

[David Love]

I think that getting the rib (of various lengths) positioned under enough
leaf springs to provide adequate clamping pressure to press the whole thing
into a curved caul is asking too much of that type of arrangement.

Why can't a few leaf springs be used instead of all this fancy air stuff?
