Maybe I need to be educated on this. What exactly is this reason for using spring steel in a Fox style bender? When released from the bender, the spring steel will put large stresses on the sides and bindings. Yes, it won't deform like SS, but it can (unless protected with foil) stain the wood. Other than deformation, what is the advantage of using spring steel?

I guess I'll have to defer to John Hall as he is the one who sold it to me. I really don't know the answer.

Sort like asking what my wife sees in me. gash I guess you'd have to ask her.
