Mike, once you get the hang of it, it's pretty quick and easy to straighten. It takes awhile to get the feel of it, though.

I hear Ya....I straighten one part and make the next more snakey....I seem to be chasing the Snake up and down the Cane Stalk!!!

mullet:
  Try straightening the crooks in the shaft, then straighten the nodes. See if that helps, I drove myself crazy doing what your doing.

Hillbilly:
Perzackly what Eddie said. Start by straightening the sections between the nodes. Treat each one individually so that each section is straight-just look at each little internode section and act like the rest of the shaft isn't there. When you get all the internodes individually straight, then straighten the nodes so that your now straight sections line up straight with each other, and you will have a straight shaft. Also, especially at first, make sure that the bend you just made has cooled down before you start heating and bending another spot.

El Destructo:
Gotcha....will try it this weekend...when and if I get a Moment to myself!!! Can't wait till I can retire!!
