Found a bag full of my old bends

Came accross a bag with a few of my old bends in it.  The memories.  Lol. Wish I'd saved more shoes.  Especially some of the size 8s.  Oh well.

Left row top to bottom:

- 5/16 x 7" fbbc square from @acorn

- First Big Sexy Bastard ever bent

- a ridiculously hard 3/8" Tree Island Spike I cut down to 7"

Middle row:

- hammer with S bend

- Diamond Special 5 heart

- 3/8" spike double bend in different directions

- Insane Bastard

- best I got on a fantastic bastard

Right row:

- Kerckhaert SSP 10x22 Extra #3 that I attempted in cordura wraps.  Only 3 people have bent a harder shoe under cert conditions in any wraps.  I bent one in suede wraps to cert, but I always considered this near miss in thin cordura pads my hardest bend ever.

- 5/8 x 19" braced bend for @David Horne list. 

-9/16" craftsman Tappet wrench

I really like the hammer bend and the twice bent spike.

Thanks.  The hammer was easy to get the first bend in, but bending the handle was a pain.  The hardest thing about the spike was getting the second bend to go in a different direction.  But it looked really cool when it was done.

Wow....:rock

Thanks guys!  Finding these was almost enough to make me want to start bending again.  Then I remembered that I've given up being a masochist and I like having my body move sorta normal.  :laugh
