This is the beauty of cold bending,as you can infinitely control the pressure you apply until you get the required bend.<br />I have never tried heating PC, as there was never a need. Have done plenty with perspex, using a makita hot air gun and firm timber clamped in a vice. You then need a timber "spatula" to hold the bend till it cools.<br />The biggest problem with a vice bend is the amount of pressure required to get the bend, and getting a tool to apply same. As you can see, this is where a bending press comes into it's own.geoff (JaG one)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8089149574354043019.post-47648783706369055162012-01-27T12:08:54.190+10:002012-01-27T12:08:54.190+10:00Thanks Geoff - very informative.

I don't have bender, but could you achieve reasonable results using a vice with rounder edge soft jaws made from aluminium or hard wood? Would mind heating using say a hair drier assist the ease of bending?<br /><br />Having typed this post, have just realized it might have been better to ask these questions via an email. On second thoughts maybe others might be interested in your answers.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />JimboJimbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14460708080238087733noreply@blogger.com
