vikingsrule92 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Unfortunately the real goal today defeated me again. Not a bad consolation prize but the crush was harder than I'd hoped it to be. Hands are SHREDDED after today so I'll be forced to take a little break to let the tendons and skin heal. Hopefully be back with something amazing in 10-14 days. P.S. Sorry in advance for the attire. It was 90-95 degrees by 9 AM today and my AC unit in the garage didn't really hit it's groove until much later. Gotta be comfortable. HAHAHA 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horrido Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Great Bend! I failed this one several times in the past in the crush area. Hats off! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Flesher Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 As awesome as this bend is, that is how terrible your shorts are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeezus Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Really nasty bend, dude! Bone-breaking crush on a short piece of stainless like that. What pads are you using and where did you get them? What's your best in IMPs? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What pads are you using and where did you get them? What's your best in IMPs? Thanks a lot buddy! Also thank you to Horrido and Tom! Those are double leathers that I cut myself from a big sheet I found at a local Tandy leather a couple years back. The crush pads I use is the same leather just it's about 4 pieces together. I haven't used IMPs in close to a decade. I used to have some really nice ones but those got lost through the years. I used to use IMPs with leathers as the double way back in 2005-10. Right now I'm firmly against giving Randall Strossen a single penny of my money but I'm debating making a run at the Gold Cert purely out of spite and the desire to force him to read my name. I'll keep everyone apprised! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acromegaman Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 @vikingsrule92 do you remember what weight the Tandy leather was cut at (3-4 oz, 4-6 oz, 8-10oz)? I have been looking for some on Tandy, but I'm unsure of what to buy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
