removal of crasling and joining of split panel


The pinetree panels were cradled. Several splits developed due to the tensions caused by cradling.

The cradle had to be removed before joining of the splits. This was done with fine japanese saws and scalpel.
To join the curved panel pieces a mould was made. Joining was effected with adjustable screws in an aluminium rig.
