[ARCHIVED THREAD] - bending flats

Posted: 3/24/2005 12:05:19 PM EDT

Could the flats be heated up at the joints to make bends easier or will that mess with the temper?

they are not heat treated at all when you get them. after you are done bending is when you harden them.

I don't think you will need to make the bending any easier.. a press and a jig is as easy as it gets..
