Hi John 44 and Grendel
Thanks for the advice appreciated, my idea was to use thin bendable strips build up thickness, needed glue in layers
then clamp to form. From what I gather you must steam the wood in order for it to hold its shape? wall paper steam stripper do you think I could use a tea kettle with hose attached to a bag with vents place the wood in then steam .
Thanks
Hi Dillinger, I don,t like the idea of using a bag just in case it bursts. The steam makes the wood bendable
Clamping to the former holds its shape.
Building up the strips using glue is fine if you want to do it that way. It just takes longer.
The wallpaper stripper I use because I already had one.
It all depends on how much wood bending you are thinking of doing, if it's a one off, use the thin strip
Glue laminating method.
