Bent some coco with w/b/w purflings last night. (.030 or so?) Went like this:
tape binding/purflings packet together
moisten with towel
wrap in moist paper towel
wrap all in alum foil
with single heating blanket on top, sandwiched between slats:
bend at 300*-310* for 10 min, cool
1-2 hours later, repeat heating cycle
2 hours later,remove from bender
find kinks upper bout, on the inside mostly
clamp in body form to finish drying
What caused the purfling kinks? They were only slighly wider than the zoot bindings...
