The chainstays and CS sockets are essentially ready for brazing; just a little bit of fine tuning remains. The included angle is around 30 degrees and a 62mm fender fits with a couple mm of clearance on either side. The manipulation of both stays and sockets was far more involved and difficult than it was for my 650b x 42 with 50mm fenders but I'm very pleased with the results. It was a mix of grinding and bending with my Omar Khiel bending bars; but you don't just insert the bars and lean on them! There is a lot of finesse involved for this amount of metal movement; I taped tiny pieces of tubing scrap, maybe 2mm x 2mm, to the bar to allow precise placement of the force I was applying. You can't just go in and bend the sockets as much as necessary or the shell will be ruined, quickly. A lot of grinding was involved too. Of course all of this work generated a huge gap between the inboard aspect of the sockets and the stays which had to be closed up. A couple of slots on each socket allowed that to be accomplished with judicious use of a hammer and drift. The stays fit beautifully and have exactly the shape and fender clearance I was after.
