I thought I would share my little idea for plank bending.
I'm not sure how original it is, but I have never seen one just like it..
Basically, it is half the bottom of a large tin can, attached to a base board.
I place the end of my wet plank into the slot and use a clamp to adjust the amount
of bend .. ( I soak in plain water for a few of minutes, depending on the type of wood )
I direct a hot blow dryer onto the jig for about two minutes. This is usual
