Reed Curving Block

This block contains cylinders of different radii ranging from 3/4" to 11". It is patterned after a block
used by Dave Junchen, but with a few added curves in the smaller range. The block is made of 7075 aluminum, which
is harder than most other alloys, and then hard anodized for surface protection.
Countersunk holes allow mounting to a bench with flathead wood screws.
