I saw a nice table in Wood magazine this month that uses the bending process for the legs. They say you can use kiln dried lumber soaked in water and fabric softener for a week then steamed and bent.
On the Lee Valley site they have an article on bending and say that trying to bend kiln dried lumber will not work even if it is soaked.
I have never done this before. Who is right? I would like to use kiln dried lumber if possible just because I have it.
Any suggestion appreciated.
