I think they get in the way to much, I am as carfull as can be, that is why i rip the strips that way, so that I am not sandwiching an 1/8 strip between the blade and fence that could vibrate and get shot out like an arrow.

Just make sure you use a good amount of clamping pressure and let it sit for at least 8 hours if you are using yellow wood glue when you do bent laminations if you let the glue harden completly you should get a very small amount of spring back, if you were steam bending, that is when you would notice a good amount.

But seriously, what does it matter if we say an eighth of an inch or 3 mm? It doesnt bother me converting from metric and Im not ready to throw out perfectly good tools I already have just to buy a metric equivalentBTW does anybody use a guard on their table saw?

As a UK citizen I still can't believe the USA continues to use the imperial system - It's from the dark ages - America doesn't even have a dark age! Come on USA, get with the programme, go metric like the rest of the civilised world. Then we can communicate more effectively. Thanks great helpful vid.

You could try steaming some wooden pieces of wood and clamping them to a mould until it set. If you use this method the curve will be solid and have no spring.

Yes, wooden pieces of wood for the springs (like a trucks leaf springs). Several of the wood springs have cracked or split. How would I bend new pieces of wood so I could use them as new springs. The bends are fairly slight. Not as much of a bend as in this vid. Could I use the same method as in this video?
