Bent Lamination Basics

[@chm1701]

Absolutely fascinating. I’d just read a blog by Paul Sellers, who mentioned bent lamination, so I thought I’d take a look on KZbin. What an interesting subject. Brilliant!

Great Video. You explain things on a easy to understand level. You remind me of my Shop Teacher in 8th grade. He was an awesome teacher. I love the tip with the Poly glue. Thanks for posting!

Good tip on the guiding splines

What sort of spring back did you get on this example?

[@moritzsanne849]

have a look at this paper. www.mdpi.com/1999-4907/11/7/725 it should help you with your question.

Video was great but I need to know the music that was played in the intro and outro.

Planning to work my way up to this technique to make my girlfriend a ukulele case as a gift. :)

So how thin was that wood?

Hi, first of all: Thank you for the good explanation. But I still have a question concerning bent lamination: If you wanted to create a longer curved beam, would it also be possible to glue up curved beams from individual pieces / "boards" that are shorter than the final beam (for example make a 9 foot beam out of two 4.5 foot "boards", than three 3 foot "boards" than again two 4.5 foot "boards" and maybe only use 9 foot "boards" for the top and bottom layers)? I hope you understand what I mean. Thanks in advance

yes, for furniture you an do this, and for architectural glue laminate beams too, you can also make mechanical joints like Japanese joinery for beams too.

I sure hope you have figured out by now that there is an easier way, not saying your way is wrong. There's more than one way to skin a cat....
