## Description

Product Description The plank blending tool is ideal for bending planking strips to the desired curvature. The rounded head on the tool should be warmed up and the wooden strip should be placed on the wooden template form. The strip is then heated by running the tool head over it a few times until the required curve is achieved. It works on dry strips with a maximum thickness of 1mm. For thickness over 1mm, the strip must be dampened. Box Contains 1 x Plank Bending Tool Kit

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this the UK plug version?**
A: Absolutely. UK plug comes as standard.  .  It’s a good tool and gives more confidence than the nipper style plank benders.  Better finish, too.

**Q: Is the stand and former included every time or is it just random.**
A: I have only ever bought one and lo and behold it included the stand and former. I think it is reasonable to assume that each one has a stand and former as it fairly useless without them and the marketing illustration includes them.

**Q: is this the full kit stand & template tool ?**
A: The kit I received comprised the iron, stand and former, although I have read that some people have been short of the stand or former - or both!

**Q: Can you use this with matchsticks**
A: Only if you soak the matchsticks overnight & proceed with caution.

Very happy with purchase

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value and quality tool
*by B***N on 9 August 2024*

Being a builder of wooden ship models I decided to finally give in and buy one of these tools. No more soaking strips of wood in water and then attaching them wet to the frame, with this tool you can apply heat and use the supplied former to get pretty close to most curves you need without the need to soak everything. The application of heat works great on the veneers without the need for soaking but for thicker strakes you will still need to soak them before trying to bend them with this tool to avoid cracking or splitting the strips. The tool heats up reasonable quickly, stays hot and usable for a good 10 minutes after being unplugged, but again I would only be forming veneers if its cooling down and not be trying to form a thicker wooden strip. As with all heat based tools there is a need to be careful about where you use this, the trailing lead can become the unwanted plaything of a curious cat, or small child. The tool comes with a stand, its not the best and if you are struggling for space to work on then yo might need to take care when using the tool that you have enough room to place the tool on its stand so that it doesn't interfere with what you're working on. Also, because it takes a while to fully cool down take care when putting it away that it doesn't scorch or damage anything else because you've put it away before its fully cooled. All in all a great tool and priced well with other tools in this category. If you want a plank bender for one or two projects then this is a great choice that will serve you very well indeed.
