king crusher Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 im new to bending...when the lengths get so short how do you grip it with 2 hands? do you use only your thumb and pointer finger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeP Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Depends on the style. Underhand, I am down to pinkies and rings @ about 5.25", thus I don't really like bending that short. Would rather do 6/7" bigger material than that short small stuff. If youve got really wide palms, ala Clay, you may only like 6" and above. Some guys like the smaller stuff. Same with overhand too, just index and maybe some middle finger on the nail. And for me it hurts more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay Edgin Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Great bend! I've not done one of these bolts myself because I haven't found a good way to bend them with my fat hands just yet. More power to ya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
