Guest Dave Bellomo Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 Being new to nail bending, I was hoping someone could post basic technique. I'm currently using a supine grip to start then finishing with a prone grip. I'm having a hard time, though. Also, I think my 40 and 60 penny nails are tempered. How do I tell?

opnsysme Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 My 2 cents.... Buy the hot rolled steel on 3 or 4 foot lengths and cut them, into 6 inch and 7 inch pieces, work the 7 inch first then goto the 6 inch. I use the "Brookfield "method. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 Could you explain, or provide a link for the Brookfield method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSW Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 I think Brookfield uses the palms down technique, also called "Slim The Hammer Man" style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
