cberg Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Kinda pissed cause it was my last one and I managed to screw up the video, got a pic at least. Took about 5 minutes, might have been less. Time to try out some edgins?

tja Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I'm still only dreaming of getting one of those. Very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketman248 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 That's awesome man. Great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumpster Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Off center and well under 2" - great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ControlledChaos Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Off center and well under 2" - great job! Just curious, since I know practically nothing about bending. Is it a challenge to keep bending upward/downward until the bolt breaks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalachiMcMullen Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Caolan, it's Edgin time Off center and well under 2" - great job! Just curious, since I know practically nothing about bending. Is it a challenge to keep bending upward/downward until the bolt breaks? People do that occasionally with tough stock, not this tough though. They bend it completely then open it up and crush it down again until it just snaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxyj75 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Nice. It's definitely edgin time! Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booyah!!! Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Awesome Bend on a Stout Brutal Hex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cberg Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 Thanks alot guys :rock. Time to rest up and see what happens. For you big benders out there how does the triangle edgin compare to this. Is it just a bit tougher throughout the whole bend? Thanks in advance.

matthcarl Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Congrats! Definitely try the edgin. I thought the two had a similar kink, but I think the Edgin is harder to crush down...considering I have crushed down a hex (not in one session) and my best Edgin attempt is stuck at 4" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just realized I stole your title from when you bent a hex . I am thinking I will get stuck right around the same spot as you. I know if I can manage to get it under 3.5" or so it is a done deal though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainCrush Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I think the hex is a good bit easier throughout the bend than a 7 inch Triangle Edgin...I was able to bend the brutal hex months before fully completing the Triangle. My 7 inch kink strength sucked big time though cause of my lack of flexibility too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 7 inch kink strength sucked big time though cause of my lack of flexibility too. What you dont know Chad is that I did not consume any coffee or hohos before the bend. That will put my bending strength through the roof when I go for the edgin . I dont think the kink will be a problem though. I think the hard part is gonna be around 90-100 degrees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the hard part is gonna be around 90-100 degrees That infamous combo has proved itself time and time again man. As long as you keep that Edgin hot and moving pretty good before you go for the interlocking crushdown phase you should have no problem with it.
