FW heavy weapon cables

Hot tap water takes forever and only lets you bend it slightly. It will also slowly curl back in place a little. Just use some boiling water and dip it, bend, and dunk in cold water. Works way better. Boiling water instantly makes it so bendy it almost feels liquid, at least for thin blades.

Yeah, I guess I should have stated as much. Common sense tells you to never mess around with putting hands near and inserting things into roiling water. I boil the water fully then just pour it into a bowl and let it sit until it's calm but I can still feel heat from the surface. Basically "boiled" water and not "boiling" water.

Depending on the size of whatever I'm going to soften up in the water, I either use a hemostat (surgical locking clamp) or some grilling tongs for the big stuff. I never drop the item into the boiling water but keep hold of it the entire time.
