Hello Lucho! You are are so far away ! Wow! Thank you so much!!!

You’re welcome! 😊

You're very welcome!

Good idea! I’ll try that next time.

Yes, I do anneal, just not every time.

Hi Troy! I put a link to the tools I use below the description. If you don’t see it, click “Show More”. The Bender Press was invented by and sold by Susan Angle at Flatwareable. Here is the link: www.flatwearable.net/home/flatwearable-bender-3d/

@@JustJani thankyou

Hi! I think you’re talking about the Bender Press. That is an attachment sold by Flatwearable (arbor press is separate). I got my arbor press at Harbor Freight. Let me know if that answers your question. Here are the links: www.flatwearable.net/flatwearable-bender-3d/ www.harborfreight.com/1-ton-arbor-press-59766.html

Hi, Depends on where you live. I. Sell mine for $30.

Thanks 😊

Hi Freddy, I run mine in a tumbler with stainless steel tumbling media.

@@JustJani thank you!

Hi Ken! Thank you! No need to anneal these, they are already soft. I’m using a silver plated fork. That gives it the look of silver jewelry without the high cost of sterling silver. Many people use stainless steel, too.

Hi Alison, They are made by Beadsmith and they are heavy duty. Https://amzn.to/3rbEKLm

Hi! Sometimes the tines just do that to you, especially the flat ones. You'll need to flatten as you go. Here are 3 things to try. You can bend a little, stop and tap it out with a hammer, bend more, tap it out, and so on. Another thing you can do is make your own tool to turn the tines as you go. You can take something, like an old screwdriver, cut the end off, and cut a "slot" into the end that will just fit over a fork tine. Use it to bend as you go. You can also look at Joakim Forsberg's fork bending tool. I can't recommend it bc I have never been able to get much out of it, but maybe watching his videos will help you. Good Luck! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qt1_n7OYyrqlYI0.htmlsi=UmjEVWSOg0sL2zp2

Hi, Those are stainless steel straws I got from Walmart.

Hi! I’m using silver plated silverware. You can use stainless steel, it’s just a bit tougher to bend.

Yes, annealing is what makes the metal easier to work with so you need to do it first.

Hi. Sorry that happened to you. You may be able to solder it if it’s already the shape you want it. You can’t solder and then bend, it’ll just break off.😞 Wish I could have been more helpful. (It’s called a tine🤗)

Hi! I have an Extreme tumbler, Rebel 17 that uses stainless steel tumbling media (pins). It is a heavy duty tumbler, so you don’t tumble your flatware as long, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. www.extremetumblers.com/products.html

Hi Cynthia, This fork is silver plated.

Thank you 💗

Hi, I find that if the hole is drilled before bending, it will spread open and be too big and stretched out.😃

Thank you!
