New Bender


Lyle

Recommended Posts

I've tried bending a while ago, without much luck, and recently found a renewed interest in it, I bent all my old stock, so yesterday I bought a 20' lenght of 1/4" hot rolled, cut it into 8&7" lenghts, also got a supply of 6" lengths,

my question is? is this a good starting place and also can anyone tell me the size of the various nails in the ironmind bag, I've tried the search but can't get results without using a 3 letter work? :D

Not a big deal but that is Eric Godfreys site, not Milfields, both great guys and great benders. It is a great site and was instrumental in my bending when I first started...Brett

Yep, that site of Eric's did a lot to spark my interest and get me on the right track, as well.

Dang it. You know what, maybe I need some good ol' fashioned humiliation like the kind you've been dishing out to some of the other benders. I definitely need to get with it.

I will make you a deal Eric. Feb 1st or bust.... On Feb 2nd you dont have the bar, I want a pic in the gallery. Duct tape works...

As much as seeing people humilliate themselves is funny, I always prefer the pic of the bent bar. Here is hoping you put the bent bar pic in. :bow THERE is your motivation... Mar 1st the bar is done or put a dress on with the bar taped to your head. :D Only had one pic of someone wearing a dress (Morton) and it haunted my dreams for a week. I have never been so horrified. So please, please, please get this thing done!
