TACTILE FEEDBACK: Since the temperature is controlled automatically, there is no need to rush the bend. The wood will neither get too hot nor cool off. Engage the wood until you feel it relax under the roller, and then press it into shape as its resistance subsides.

Steel spring steel???
I bought this bender a while back but just got around to using it. Well made. Easy to use. The controller works great. The forms are well made. Basically everything about this bender is top notch. EXCEPT the metal spring steel. Really!!! Not stainless??? They have blueing on them but the problem is they rusted with first use and the bluing stained my wood. I didn't use aluminum foil. Used chemical free kraft paper which I have used many times with my homemade ukulele side bender. But for that I have stainless spring steel. I'm going to throw away your steel and buy some stainless ones. For the price of this otherwise very nice bender, I would spend a few dollars more and upgrade to stainless spring steel.
