Very strong! Thanks Wiggy. I started this bolt with just imps + one pair of leather because I had hybris and it probably workhardened at that spot making the final part of the kink harder then it had to be. My guess is that I can probably take this bolt down to the sweep in one go but the sweep need more training. The crush will obviously be a problem too, we will see when I get there.

David_wigren Posted October 29, 2021 Author Share Posted October 29, 2021 Had some good progress today. Braced bent a 14.5” 12mm rebar and strict DU’d a 207kg grade 8 with wog wraps touching. The grade 8 was prekinked though and sitting at about 5 degrees so it wasn’t a full bend. But still a strict DU PR. I’ve struggled getting more than 5-10 degrees on these with wraps touching strict DU. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
