EricMilfeld Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Because I'm having to prioritize some things in my life I won't be updating any of the bending lists or calibrating steel any longer. I've enjoyed it very much but for me it is time for a change. Perhaps things will change in the future and I will be able to continue, but for now I'm bowing out.

Your calibrating really helped shape bending for alot of us, and without it i don't think bending would be as popular today. I can appreciate needing to prioritize things, good luck with everything and thank you for all you help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_wigren Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 I'm sad to hear this aswell. Eric has done SO MUCH for the sport of bending. He's brought so much knowledge into the game and created a process that has made it easy to understand and measure accuratly. No one who is bending today can thank him enough for what he has done for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Gaisser Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 And my St. Croix Lite Plain #3's just came in today! That's no joke. But I'm glad your putting things in order the way they should be Eric. Alot of people screw their lives up by not putting the most important things first. I've done it several times, screwing up that is. Good look and hope you stay in contact with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gripmaniac Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Thanks for all the calibrating Eric - bending wouldn't have made it into very many grip comps were it not for your efforts. When/if the day arrives that you feel compelled to calibrate some steel I'd like you to PM me first - I have "quite a few" batches in need of calibrating Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dansweeney Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Eric, anyone who has ever bent knows that if it weren't for all your hard work we would still be guessing which is harder than what. Thanks for all your work and good luck with all future endeavors Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
