Some cool logs to follow popping out of the ground lately. I saw you were active on the board for a while and admire your bending work. When I have scraped off some grippergoals I will start also with bending. Love your DO bending instructionvid. Clear and to the point.

Let's see what you can do with the other gripstuff man. Enjoy the quest.

Dude, you're 39!?

I'm gonna follow this too. I'm curious to see how you progress in grip. I hope it's as fast as you did with bending.

Thanks for the kind words Geralt. Bending has always been my passion and hobby. I was pretty active on the benders battlefield but never really posted on the grip board, just read and tried to learn stuff. I have no huge aspirations with grip but I do really enjoy it and it's a great stress relief to help balance everything else.

I look forward to seeing you wrap up some steel soon!

I'll be the big 4-0 this year! I'm not even close to hitting my prime though!! :laugh:laugh

Thanks man, your bending has always motivated me to push further. Do we know what ever happened to the rest of the Battlebars? Are Mike K. and Chad R. done with the steel?

Not sure about Chad. Mike has a ton of steel I'm going to get from him, hopefully. Just got to work a few things out first.
