This is my take on the Doolin style bender. My reasoning for making this style is the sides can be cut to exact length and indexed at the tail end. I bought a heat blanket and controller from LMI and it works great. Thus far, I have bent six sets of sides, linings, and binding strips. The forms in one picture are my pear shape tenor, pear shape concert and a figure eight shape tenor. Thanks to Rick turner and others here who have shared information. I would appreciate seeing photos of other's Doolin style benders. Thanks
