Several builders have made simple L shaped 90 degree brackets to hold sideboards vertical and use to clamp curve into rear of fuselage.
the plan is laid on a flat level table and covered with mylar or plastic to keep off glue. The brackets are screwed to table,the  sideboards inserted and clamped to form curve. Drop in bulk heads etc .
Old school is to pre form curve into side board. This method you need a jig and add a little extra curve to provide for spring back.
