Bent lamination radius chart by wood species
fishhead
| Posted in General Discussion on
Some time ago I saw a chart/table showing the minimum radius by thickness for a variety of common wood species for bent lamination projects.
I can not find now that I am looking for it. Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can save a copy?
Thanks.

has a reasonable article and species chart on bending wood.
-I removed the above link since it went around another publication's pay wall. I hate it when people post straight to our pdfs... but fine. I do however want to respect other publications and make sure there isn't the same happening to them. -Ben
and two more interesting ones

This article by Brian Boggs has a chart in it.
