So the plan (such as it is) is to make formers the right shape, then cut enough times in the right places, then wrap the ply onto the formers and glue it. However something will be needed to fill the cuts i.e. fill the cuts then bend and glue. I was thinking maybe builder's bog? What do you reckon.
The grey outline is the cross section, black outline is the top/bottom panels. I realized that earlier my diagrams were confusing because I wasn't showing the "hole" that the drivers fire through.
I'm not sure how it's different from the general purpose festool blade. Cheaper Thin kerf will mean more cuts though
Confused (as usual!) :-S
Yeah! Though I like CMT blades myself.
More teeth means less tear out as the blade leaves the job. It also means the blade is more durable when cutting plywood because ply is hard on blades. The carbide bits also tend to be shaped differently to enhance durability on these saw blades. So less sharpening required.

Use caulk to fill the cuts. It's an air cure, water based and won't interfere with the forming. Just apply on the flat sheet then curl into position and remove the excess.

Nice...might be wanting a specialist plywood blade if you are going to continue down that road.

With more teeth?
Thats cheating [-X

Here's the general idea -

Also I might just make the curve a semicircle.
