macaz Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Got some stock in yesterday. I tried 6" 5/16 HRS for the first time and killed it. It started out easy like a blue nail but got much harder the further it got bent. The final crush to under 2" was intense. I also tried some 6" 1/4 CRS square. It was a big surprise how tough it is. Not a dent on it. I thought that stuff that has sides is easier than round. Thought I read it somewhere. Oh well.... Ill get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A circle can be described as being a polygon with an infinite number of sides. So its -circle, hex, square- from easiest to hardest and the most sides to the least.

My 5/16 square CRS should be fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GatorGrip Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Way to keep up the solid bending - you'll keep progressing until that crs square is bendable for you at different lengths. We all started out low on the ladder and our progress usually surprised us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malice Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Great job on that 5/16 Rich!! I tried a 5/16x7 HRS a couple weeks ago and I actually heard it laughing at me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
