Needed something to help sand some legs on a butcher block table so I tried my hand at some small wood bending. Inspired by one done by Woodbywright on youtube. Fun guy to watch. Its 3/16” oak that I bent by boiling it in water and the end caps are some left over wenge. Works with 3×21 sanding belts. | |||||||

If I made a 3/4 plywood table with simple metal legs from amazon, do I need to add more supports? |

That is very clever, Armorduck. I might have to look into making one for myself.

Thanks everyone. If you watch his video on it he uses 3×18 in sandpaper. I adjusted the length of mine to use 21” paper. I am probably going to make another that is for the 1”x30” paper when I get back from my vacation and try to mirror more of what he was doing by only using hand tools.

Is your oak piece 3/8” thick or 3/16”?
