I confess I haven't built a stripper. yet! Therefore this may be a very stupid question. Why can't the form be made female instead of male. In other words, make each station a curbed cradle into which you could push the strips. I have heard of using this technique to build plywood boats that ordinarily would be stitch and glue. With the forms on the outside of the hull, it is supposedly not necessary to stitch the panels together. Steve
