Funny, I'm new to guitar building and I bent Paduk at .085 and it bent like butter.Mohagony though, I broke 2 sides...Thank you for your vidéos, so helpful!!

[@fiftythree30]

excellent info. thanks for posting!

[@beak85]

How about Back Walnut or English Walnut?

[@analogoutdoors]

Thanks for the information. I found that the Sapele I bent wanted a ton of heat.
You need to clean the camera lens, btw.

we learned that thanks

[@analogoutdoors]

@@tippie53 It happens to me too. Dont sweat it.

[@jonahguitarguy]

All very good info John. I've got some very tough Q sawn mag that doesn't want to bend coming out of my steam box. Needs more heat. The last few of your new videos have a blurry spot about center of frame. Could it just be a smudge on the lens?

[@LaSalle.ToneWorks]

Yes, we learned about the smudge during editing. Lesson learned for us to check prior to doing the videos :-)

A question : when you talk about degrees, you refer to Fahrenheit or Celsius? Thanks a lot! Always fine and useful videos!
