    I've got a yellow IC belt and a dual plated winged eagle. The curve on both is ok to me, but not great. I really want to try to get a better curve on both.

      Are they 2 mm or 4 mm? Honestly if they are bootlegs I wouldn't test it. There's a better chance of cracking the plate. If they are figs 2mm or wwe 4mm (carefully!) give it a shot!

      The intercontinental will be easier to do. I did mine over the arm of the couch being careful to place the curve at each end equally so it doesn't fold but it curves

      @@ApexVipah1 gotcha. Ok. Thanks for the replies. I may give one or both of them a shot sooner or later. I have both mounted on the wall next to each other. So I'm gonna curve one, I gotta curve the other so they match (my mild OCD lol)

      Sounds good my friend! The winged eagle will be harder to curve just because it's a smaller plate. Do you have the one with the sidebars attached? If so be careful

    Hey man I’m trying to curve my wwe shop big eagle 4mm belt. I keep doing a little bit a day over the arm of the couch like you are doing. I think I’ve got a very slight curve so far but not enough. I’m being very very careful with trying not to apply too much pressure pressing down on the plate but maybe I need to apply more pressure. Do you have any tips or advice? Should I just keep playing it safe and do a little a day? How durable do you think that 4mm big eagle is? I just don’t want it to snap as I’m pressing on it.

    Let me ask another question how difficult do you thinknit would be or the risk of drilling out the holes on the side plates and making them front screwing?? Seems like an easy thing but iffy

    • @ApexVipah1
      @ApexVipah1  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's something I haven't ventured into yet lol. If it were me I would probably do it and countersink the holes at the front so the screws can be kind of flush with the top of the plates. That's just my opinion. I'm not too huge on actually cutting into plates to be honest with you lol

      It's possible but plastic is too malleable and breakable for my bravery lol

      Plastic is a lot weaker than metal, so while it could work, it’s highly recommended not to try

    How risky is it tho…. Just orderd the scratch logo and wanna curve it but also dont want it to snap in half….

    • @ApexVipah1
      @ApexVipah1  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I completely understand my friend. If you're too nervous don't give it a shot yourself cause it IS a risk. The more solid 4 mils (ic title) are a bit easier to curve but but the spaces in between the w's give risk. There are always options for getting your plates curved by those who do stone work if you'vegot the money and patience to s3nd the belt away. It's just a decision if you want to do-it-yourself or have somebody else do it. I'm not sure what they're policies are if they break plates tho... I've only seen vids of successful curving lol

      Set in the middle of a couch cushion and gently push on the top and bottom of the top side of the center plate (preferably ON the strap). It's easier on the 2 mm like I said but you can try on a 4... Best of luck!
