I must have spent an hour yesterday trying to bend one side for a uke. I got about halfway done, and I clamped it into a mold. I used one of those pricey electric bending irons, but that didn't make it easy. I kept the mahogany (from Stew-Mac) moist during the process. I have other things going on in my life, so I'll wait a few days before getting back to it.
Is there a desired temperature for the bending iron?
My hat's off to you guys who do this so well on a regular basis. When (if) I ever finish this uke, I think I'll sell the bending iron.
