John Beatty Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Never done the 1/4" square before. 7" is just very uncomfortable, can't get leverage. Had been down getting the siding on the training hall & decided to bend a few pieces. Did 2x 6" x 1/4" round crs, then, since I had a 1/4" square laying there on the cutting bench, wrapped it & gave it a go. After about 4 hard cranks, it started to give. Went to 20 degrees or so, then 2 more jumps until it was 45. Then crushed it down in two pushes to about 1.5" Those look pretty darn cool. Going to work these for a while & get ready for the FBBC 7".

FrankyBoy Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Congrats John. The 7"er square is great stock to work towards the Red or the 5/16 stock. I love that stock. And it looks soooo cool when bent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
