Frank Pizzo Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Had a good bending session the night before Christmas where I bent two Reds back to back fairly quickly (for me) after watching Tommy's video on wrapping. I rested till today then wanted to try one under cert conditions. It took longer than normal to get the bar into position, but once I did, the bend felt good. This was the first time I ever tried taking the rubber bands off, so I ended up a bit fumbly bumbly on that part, but I'm still pretty dang happy with this bend. As always thanks for checking out my stuff, and thanks again to Tommy for that wrapping video, it helped tremendously! 8 Quote "Gold medals aren't really made of gold.
