    Welcome to the forums TG (Twistiesgirl...just too long to write). Have alook at this old thread - http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com...ead.php?t=9596

    There is a search facility on the task bar above.

    I did a quick Google search for "timber bending techniques" and got a lot of info back. Here are some;
    - http://www.crcwood.unimelb.edu.au/re.../woodbend.html
    - http://www.timberbenders.com.au/
    - http://www.tai-workshop.com/english/tech-2(b)-e.html

    The last one focuses on Japanese techniques. Have a search of the Scandinavian methods as well.

    I am sure that there will be much more advice to follow. Now you have asked for advice you have to keep in touch.

    Good luck TG.
