rolf Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Go me! A couple of hours ago I bent a 1/4"x5.5" FBBC round piece of steel. How would you rate this compared to a 5.5" IM blue? That was my previous PB. I still have some room before I hit the roof strength-wise, but with 8" hands I have problems bending anything shorter than 5.5". I've tried a 5" blue but only got it to maybe 30 degrees, couldn't really fit my hands in there to finish it off. Also, how hard would you guess a 1/4"x6" grade 5 would be for me now? I have a chance of obtaining a number of these as a friend will visit me from the States soon. My "sweet spot" regarding length when bending seems to be 6" to 6.5".

Oldtime Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 (edited) they say fbbc stock is 5% stronger then im stock.. Id say once ou get a 5" fbbc 1/4 round you will be ready for a g5. Edited July 23, 2005 by Oldtime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermagnamon Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 good job, dude. i have 8.5" hands, so i know how u feel, when bending anything short, like 5". oldtime is right, though. the fbbc stock is stronger than the im stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
