: Mick, run that by me again please. Are you asking how it bends at a 12"
: and 24" radius with/without glass on the underside or something else?

Hi lee:
say you had the ply laid flat, and you got 2 people at each long end so the grain flowed from one to the other. In your experience w/ the thinnest most flexible ply used for s&gs, how small of a radius could they bend without cracking say more than 25percent(give or take) of the time?
