I've got some nice figured Koa I'm going to be bending in the next week. Never worked with it before. Lots of tight curls. Any advice? More heat/less heat/lots of water/no water/etc.?
I've got a fox style bender with stainless steel slats and a good heat blanket with router speed controller that works well for everything I've thrown at it so far. Just wanted to get some tips before I go at this high dollar set. Thanks.
