haven't gotten any yet, just trying to figure out if i get it, can i work with it. if i'm gonna have to buy a bender, then i might as well just buy a premade bar.....

let me know. there's a good chance I'll be ordering a small quantity from that guy on pirate soon. we could split a piece and save on some shipping.
