gerryg Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 The FBBC 1/4"x6" round was melting in my hands, then a new batch of FBBC 1/4"x6" round arrived at my house.I'm having a tough time bending the new stock, do you think the new stock is tougher or am I over training? Quote
Alawadhi Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 If the new bastard is stronger than the old ones then i guess the same thing applies to the 1/4. Quote Read about me in my biography.

Tim71 Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 Yeah the new bastards are ton's tougher than the ones from earlier this year. Seems like the tougher stuff is kinda darker compared to the easier batch. You'll get it. Tim Quote
gerryg Posted June 21, 2007 Author Posted June 21, 2007 Has anyone bought IM blues lately, how do they compare to the FBBC 1/4"x6" round? Quote
gerryg Posted June 24, 2007 Author Posted June 24, 2007 Well, I ordered 50 blue nails and a new coc#3. Soon I will be able to compare myself. Quote
gerryg Posted July 4, 2007 Author Posted July 4, 2007 Well, I ordered 50 blue nails and a new coc#3. Soon I will be able to compare myself. My IM package arrived today! I have not bent since the last time I posted here, I took down 2 blues and a FBBC 1/4"x6" round with no problems! I used IM pads, bent DU, and used a little tip from my Diesel Crew Bending E-Book!

gerryg Posted July 4, 2007 Author Posted July 4, 2007 Does'nt metal i.e hrs crs vary a lot anyway? I'm going to say the FBBC stock felt a little bit tougher. Quote
