Heat bending osage

<< < (2/2)

Pappy:
I rarely do any tweaking or bending in the thick part of the handle area, I do most of my alignment work with the limbs if I have a problem with string alignment. Violating/grain rings and such in the none bending area isn't a problem so I try to get that part straight and how I want it in my lay out.  :)

Gordon:
My experience with heat bending is: Steam - bend quickly; Dry heat - bend SLOWLY while maintaining heat

Pappy:
That's been my experience also Gordon, being careful with not getting to hot, just enough heat where it bends easy with out a lot of force.  :)
