Foote, heels, go-bar

[Mark Cramer]

  Hello Ed,
Slide a group (22) wippens onto two metal rods in a holding fixture, or
leave wippens on the stack, with the stack upside down.

A wooden caul conformed to the heel shape held in place with perhaps 3
go-bars provides good clamping pressure over the section. BTW, at home, I
re-inforced the ceiling over my workbench, at B.U. the ceiling is concrete.

Does a very nice job of "stretching" cloth between the "fore and aft"
glueing areas, especially where heels are bolstered with bushing cloth. Have
used many times, always a pleasure.
