The plans call for a 1/8x3/8" leading edge, but of course it needs to follow that wicked gull curve. So instead of one piece, I decided to laminate 3 pieces of 1/8" sq. bass stock. First I used the spars to cut a pattern in two slabs of foam board and used spray adhesive to stick them together. I fastened them down to my drywall building board. Then I steamed all 3 pieces for a short while - just enough to get them flexible. I glued the edges, and pinned them against the foam board. These should make for a nice leading edge.
