Project, Day Three

Continuing to work on my test piece.  Today didn't go quite as well as the earlier sessions.  The early parts of the curve were easier, but today I ended up closing the curve a little too much.  Also, it is much harder to control the piece during the later parts of the bending.  Also, I'm using too many heats and causing too much scale on the piece.

I've gotten to the point where the bend changes direction and I have to figure out they best way to handle the piece for this part of the work.

Here is a picture of where I am with the test piece now - it was much nicer looking last time:
