Step 2Cut the lumber
Just cut out the traced jig. Use a bandsaw if you have one. I don't so, I just used a jigsaw. Cut the jig to be little smaller than the desired curve. This will allow for the spring action of the tubing.
Since I used two pieces of 2x4, I made a little gusset to hold the two together (2nd pic).
Hint: Add a little bevel inward on the bottom of the cut. This will keep the tubing from popping off of the jig when bending.
