I am ready to install the top on my 1911 Touring. The suppliers are out of the wedge shaped rear bow riser board, the one that gives the top the correct shape at the rear of the rear bow. Can someone give me the shape and measurements for that board? Thank you, Art

Hey Art,

I'm still waiting about my bow for my 1911. They are stuck at the border because of COVID-19 situation still march... I will be glad to have the the shape and measurements either.

All the best

The notes I have from my original top show that "riser" as 38" long and 9/16" at the thick side. The "riser" on another 1911 I saw was 43" long. I compromised and I made mine 40" long.
Note on the photo that Dan posted on the right there is a dimension of 7/8" "rise" across the top of the back bow. I won't argue over 1/16"
