matthcarl Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Dave Ostlund remains one of my steel bending heroes, at a time when only a few people ever bent the red nail he was killing it in a style most couldn't manage now. Anyway, here's one of my better bends using "Ostlund" style wrapping: 6x1/4 round CRS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxyj75 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Nice Matt! I love that vid too. Dave just wraps that red like a hotdog and destroys it! Congrats man! Looked like you had alot more in you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthcarl Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 Thanks guys, I just like to vary my bending a little I do not have a lot more in me, though . I've done 1/4" CRS at 5" that way, but even an easy G5 is well out of my range. Some of you stronger-wristed guys could probably do much better.

nockowt1 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Congrats Matt. The last time I bent like that I was doing a 60d and stabbed myself in the hand. I'll try again with a g5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthcarl Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 Congrats Matt. The last time I bent like that I was doing a 60d and stabbed myself in the hand. I'll try again with a g5. Sheesh. I've bent a number of 60d's that way, and didn't really thinka bout the stabbing possibilities. Good luck on the G5! I tried and all all I did was hurt my wrists...
