Re: David Haig: Bending Timber

I steam bent for the first time when I built the 2.5" wide rockers for a heavy mission rocking chair a few years ago. On my first attempt the bending went well enough except that when I let the rockers out of the form 3-4 days later they proceeded to assume different radii. I ended up bending a single 6" wide rocker and after 2 weeks of drying I ripped that in half. That worked out quite well. I'm wondering how David overcame this problem especially since his bends are far more elaborate.
