stranger Posted July 10, 2021 Author Share Posted July 10, 2021 Bends from 7/8. Felt good today and got back up to the 1/4x6 JH grade 8's Few warm up with g2 and 60d 2 grade 5's 1/4 square from 7 1/4-6 1/2. Felt really easy, gonna try a 5 next session. Was able to get 2 Grade 8's . Tried to snap the 1/4 square that's really tight but crushed too much and couldn't move it after a few minutes of going back and fourths.

stranger Posted August 1, 2021 Author Share Posted August 1, 2021 A few warm ups followed by 2 1/4x6 grade 5's in single suede and 2 grade 8' in suede with leather on top. Failed on a grade 8 with imps and suede. Might switch to just imps and grade 5's for a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stranger Posted August 4, 2021 Author Share Posted August 4, 2021 60d and 1/4x6 grade 5's. First two in suede and the rest in imp's. Getting the link in these imp's is thought but getting easier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stranger Posted August 9, 2021 Author Share Posted August 9, 2021 Full workout done in iron mind pads. Grade 2 Grade 5 17/64x7 drill rod 9/32x7 drill rod 19/64 drill rod Failed Red 19/64 2x 17/64 Grade 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devinhoo Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 If you keep working that drill rod in IMP's you'll get the Red Nail soon. I did a lot of 19/64" drill rod and 1/4 square CRS leading up to my cert. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stranger Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share Posted August 13, 2021 Bending from 8/12 1/4x7 g2 2x horrido 4.8 17/64 x7 o drill rod 19/64 x7 o drill rod (took about 10 min) Failed Horrido A4 4x 9/32x7 o drill rod in about a min Horrido 4.8 over killed All done in IMP's. Definitely wanna try the A4 again. Fresh I should get it but I think the 19/64 took a lot out of me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stranger Posted August 17, 2021 Author Share Posted August 17, 2021 All bends don't in imp's Warmed up to 17/64x7 drill rod 19/64x7 drill rod Horrido A4 pre kinked Horrido A4 new Volume with 1/4x6 grade 5's Finish 17/64x7 drill rod. In-between each bend I closed some grippers working up to #3's in each hand then some filed CPW gripper for a few more singles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stranger Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share Posted August 21, 2021 Went back and forth between grippers and bending . Closed CoC 3.5 rated 158 twice and slight miss in standard Cobalt rated 164. Bending: all in IMP's Horrido 4.8 Horrido A4 2 different 1/4x7 square. Two different strengths and you can tell by the bend shapes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I have ever heard of a #3.5 that low before. But it's all good, I feel these light #3.5's should've been on the market a long time ago. Same with GHP's which also have started to make lower rated #8's. It's good for training. However not good for certifification. But that could of course be controlled if they wanted to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stranger Posted August 27, 2021 Author Share Posted August 27, 2021 Had a great day of bending! Decided to all bending in suede since I've need using IMP's for the last few sessions. DO Horrido A4 Horrido A2 (cert video sent) Red Nail Failed Red Nail 1/4x6 grade 8 (took over 5 min) Reverse grip 1/4x6 grade 5 https://youtu.be/kyNIaWjGE_I 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
