Very interesting indeed! Blather aside, I'm thinking that the tool in question is a waviness gauge such as the one I made for checking plugs and molds: http://www.hpaircraft.com/hp-24/upda...october_04.htm My experience, backed by template checks on a variety of sailplanes, is that getting the waviness below .004" is a lot more important than making the airfoil exactly match the intended contour. Thanks, Bob K. http://www.hpaircraft.com/hp-24
