Wes Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 A while back, I posted about getting a blue my first time bending and then I kinda got out of it. Well, today I decided to I'd like to start bending seriously and went to the hardware store and got about 10 60d's and some stuff called 60 d polebarns as well as these black ridged ones that are 6x1/4. I warmed up with one of the polebarns, and it was real easy, but snapped on the crushdown. Then I went to the 60d's. Found out I can bend these without too much difficulty. Bent a couple of them and warmed down with another polebarn. How good are 60d's for a beginner? The only things I've ever bent were a couple of IM nails that I freeloaded off a friend just to see if I could (a yellow, blue and a 5x1/4 in CRS and some misc CRS).

EricMilfeld Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Wes, you're definitely a natural! What brand of 60d was it? They do vary considerably in strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't really know what brand, it was just in a bin at the hardware store, however it did seem to be a bit harder than the blue I tried. It's kinda hard to tell though when you're using a hanky for padding, as the pain is pretty bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alawadhi Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 (edited) a bit harder than the blue? if that was so then i can bend a blue. your really strong wes. i saw you in the #3 close clip and you were thin. but i don't think after seeing you that size matters. what if you are large? scary.
