19/09 5:00pm - Start soaking
 |
| Sheets of Bendy Plywood. |
 |
| Three ply. |
 |
| Plywood soaked in hot water. |
20/09 7:00pm -Start bending
 |
| Two plywood glued together and bended against a cylinder. |
22/09 5:00pm - Finished
 |
| wood and glue are dry and they keep the curve. |
 |
| Gap between wood. |
What I learned from the experiment...
- 24h is plenty for soaking. Still a bit too hard to bend at 12h.
- PVA glue doesn't seem the best choice for this job. Takes really long to dry, not good with water, etc.
- Probably need to use single ply wood. easier to bend.
- Need positive and negative mould. One mould can easily get gaps between woods.
- or could use vacuum, so need only on mould.
- The bend radius is small enough for my design.
