vikingsrule92 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Tried these out on Friday and just got around to getting the videos up. Golden: Big Golden: I'm going to try the Huge tomorrow, because those went down VERY quick!! I also bent a 5/8" x 48" Square HRS and 5/8" x 36" HRS. I tried a 34" of the 5/8" but it got stuck at 90 and was too damn awkward to move farther. My Dad also tried a few things yesterday and I'll put the pics up later. He got a Huge Bastard to a little past 90 and ha the exact same degree bend in the 5.5" Square. However, the Square was ~1/2" off center and mostly on the flat, as I told him afterwards once that happened he had very little chance of finishing it (no disrespect to him of course).

AdamTGlass Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Awesome. I knew the brass wouldn't put up much of a fight for you. Easy stuff wasn't it? I was expecting it to be tougher, not as spring as some people made it sound... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule92 Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 Thanks a lot everybody Last time that 7" kicked my ass so I came back for revenge Adam, what lengths have you tried? It's pretty damn springy when you're at a lower strength level, when I tried it a month ago it went to 3" and then kept springing back. It's definitely springier than a F911, so I think you're just strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingsrule92 Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 To easy Derek! Go for the huge now! And you're supose to bleed every now and then, bending is not a game I was going to today, but I was sore so I'll go for it tomorrow. Haha I know man, that's why I just rubbed some chalk in it and moved on, it's not like I was whining Alawadhi, I'll try a Shiny tomorrow after the Huge Golden. If I'm feeling good I might also go after the Huge Hex, we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's your turn buddy. Give it all that you've got! You've got to blast through that 90 degrees and way down to 2". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yeah man you don't want it slipping all over the place if you're bleeding Nah but haven't you heard that? Chalk is supposed to heal a cut or something like that. Yeah well I've already gotten it past 90, I need to work on that 2" part Thanks Jason and John. Yeah John I'm expecting some springiness for sure, damn I can't wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
