Brad Manion Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 1. Short term = Finally bending IM-Red, FBBC-Bastard, 70d-USA by the end of 2007. 2. Medium Range = Bending odd objects such as 10" wrench 2. Long Term = John Brookfield endurance challenge, bending an entire box of 60d nails, or beyond, if the body holds together.

Tim71 Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 Mats, I'm about to add horseshoes to my routine once again. I've bent a couple but I'm very hit and miss with them so my goals for horseshoes are: Short: Anything consistantly maybe a O diamond or such or maybe lites Medium: #1 or similiar classic or lite St croix long: #2 St croix regular shoe Ultimate #4 draft horseshoe into a heart. Also, maybe a partial or "S" into a #6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim71 Posted March 10, 2007 Author Share Posted March 10, 2007 Sorry Mats somehow I missed your question. The horseshoe I bend placing it on the side of my thigh and pulling acrossed. I honestly had never seen anyone else do it this way when I did it. I was just frustrated trying to bend it on the top of my leg like Big Steve does so I was playing around and finally ended up trying that and I got it moving. Bent a #1 of the same type for a hardware store owner a few days later and haven't bent another shoe since. I need to work on it much more and to me getting it moving is the hardest part. Did you see the railroad spike in my gallery? Needless to say I didn't bend it. I actually think the hydrolic machine bent it. Pretty neat to see people's reactions when I break it out though.

antarath Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Tim You missed my question, but still answered it I bent the FBBC horseshoes in front of my chest 5 minutes ago. Only using wriststrength. Felt pretty good about it. Just pulled the ends apart. So my next goal would be certing on those darn FBBC nails. I'm still waiting for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
