Steaming box

[Lou Morrissette]

I need to do some severe bending on some stock and need to steam it. I'm having some problems finding a steam box in any of my catalogs. Any of you have any info on sources for these? I'd apreciate any info on these. Thanks in advance.

I don't know if you can buy a steam box - seems like everybody makes their own. Any book on steam bending usually gives directions on how to do it.

You don't even need to be a "woodworker" to make one. Just smack together a box that your wood will fit in. Make it out of anything. Seal up the ends with some pieces of wood and rags. Or bricks. It doesn't matter. Here's a recent thread on the same subject...

Thanks guys. Looks like building my own is the best option. Thanks again and Happy New Year.
