Good video! What is your preferred brand of decking and what brand is best for bending?

[tyronewilliams]

Hey man what are those heat pads? Where'd you get em?

[tantricsarcasm]

I have read that composite deck boards expand and contract lengthwise with temperature changes. Does this cause any issues with curved boards, since you measure the radius so precisely? Thanks! (I just found your channel and it's really helpful.)

Hey dr what kind Heat bags do you used and did you found to buy. Good job by the way, thanks

I only need to do one bend on a board for a deck I’m doing now. It’s about a 4’ radius. What is the easiest way to head it up for like a one time deal without sending a bunch of money?

[mikegilmour]

Looks cool can you bend a radius as tight as 7’

Cool video! Im assuming you have framed up the deck, rolled out Ram board and traced the underside? Have you ever tried striking arcs with the length/height/radius method? Using 2 boards that ride along the (left and right width points/zero point on a nail) and then you join the boards in the middle at the correct height for the arc/circle and you strike a line riding the nails from left to right giving you the circle/arc you're after? Im sure that may not have made much sense. Lol

[Sam-dnwg]

WOW! How hot do you have to get those to bend like that? Thats crazy

[billmueller]

Keep up the good work and thanks for the tips

[tobiehead]

Why did you get the heating pads system for bending your boards and your pvc forming strips?

[jackr]

what is the temp and how long in the heat blanket?

[МаксимБирюков-оо]

Прекрасная работа! Подскажите пожалуйста сколько времени уходит на подогрев одной доски? И при какой температуре?
Great job! Please tell me how much time it takes to heat one Board? And at what temperature?

[gleng]

Can you bend and ship to Houston? 12’ long ~20’ radius.

[matthewmahony]

How do you remember which mark to go by when there are so many others on the ply.

[wummerG]

Thanks for a great video. What did you use for those two bendable tracks for the form?

[MrMelanaphy]

What temperature were you heating the deck boards to.
