MeatPlow Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 (edited) This evening I bent my first grade 5 6"x1/4" bolt! I done my sledge hammer work and was feeling decent so I decided to do a few of the really tough 60s that I have. I done 3 of them and in good form so I decide to go for it. I got a slight kink the first try and my hands slipped or rolled on my leather padding. I rewrapped and sunk it down to just below were I got stuck the other times. I regrouped and turned it to overhand style and pushed it home. It was some tough going and my hands are slightly sore already. Above all a mental gain. Heres the picture. I hope this ain't violating rule 4...just ain't sure. If it is remove it and it can wait until I get Heath to watch it. http://www.gripboard.com/index.php?act=mod...cmd=si&img=1068 Edited September 10, 2004 by MeatPlow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octogen Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 SWEEEET! I don't think rule #4 appllies to G5 bends now that the gripboard is destroying reds on a regular basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
