Coming unglued- bending 23/64"X7" CRS tonight

by adam on June 22, 2009

After this i did a 6.5″ piece of the same diameter stock to 110 degrees. I was pretty tired and my hands are beat up. Very tough stock, this is just a shade thinner than 3/8, so it fairly close in difficultly.

I was going to take tonight off, but Ryan called me and said my steel shipment was in, so i decided to get this out of the way.

Sick, sick, sick, is 7/16 next?

No, in order would be cut this down to 6", finish the 3/8, cut that down to 6", work on Stainless 3/8, 5/16 square, 5/16 stainless hex falls in there somewhere (no idea)

7/16 has never been done, and if it has been, it was done by Gary Hunt. No one else right now is even knocking on it. No one.

Damn, there is a lot more steps there than I expected. You are planing on trying to shoot for 7/16 down the road right?

WOW>……………….. That is all I can say ! My favorite part is when you take the leather off and was going to stop and started to walk toward the camera. Then , you stop and think I can get this farther………. Put the leather back on , and mash it a bit more ! NICE WORK
