I'm having a problem getting a perfectly square lower press surface on a r/d.  Is this going to be a major problem?

What ever blemish you have in the lower form will show up in every bow you make in that form,

Thanks Kenny.  I'll start over and build my  2nd form by your directions using the router and template.
