help needed radius radiator

[Darren100]

hi does anybody know how to work out the radius of a radiator. this radiator is going to be fitted in a 1930,s bay window

You will need to make a template of the bay out of cardboard or a bit of old carpet so that the rad can be made to fit. Just giving the radius is not a good idea as the bay might not be a perfect curve.

Could be very expensive if you get it wrong.

One other VERY IMPORTANT POINT is that the template needs to be of the wall surface, not the skirting as the rad will hang on the wall.
