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.
Good work man. I’m trying to curve my wwe shop big eagle 4mm belt. I’m using the same technique as you but I’m doing a little bit every day and trying not to put too much pressure on as I’m afraid of breaking it. Have you got any tips? Should I be more careful with that type of belt?
Ive been trying something like this, and my BE isnt budging. you also have to consider its a solid plate, with this NL theres gaps; less material. Bending will be much easier with hands. Im 250, and i put 100% of my weight on the plate, above a barbell, and NOTHING LMAO. but ive been reading, and people say use a heat gun. soooo i dont have one but i might try a hair blower for now. also if it breaks... now you have a CUSTOME hardcore title to make!!! but dont think it will ha.
@@coltoncyr2283 great stuff man. Since my comment I’ve actually had some progress and gotten a curve, although I’m still working on getting a deeper curve but just taking time and being patient. So yes like you say I’ve had more success heating the plate but like you I also don’t have a heat gun. I actually just put my belt next to the window on some hot/sunny days for a couple of hours (not in direct sunlight) and the plates where really hot and I think I got more success doing it that way. Like I say though my curves not the deepest yet and I’m working on more of a curve but the belt is looking so much better from all angles. If laid flat now I can actually slide my fingers under the main plate.
@shaun2908 your big eagle maybe too thick to tempt it like I did my Network Logo belts remember they're casted replicas so they are alot harder to curve them without breaking maybe try applying heat to the plate to soften the metal
They're plastic man...the only way you can curve them without breaking them is using heat...like putting it on a round surface and heating it up maybe that might work
I would recommend a strap and a rounded surface.. less risk more control and a better curve. How i did mine. But if that works it works.
I was able to curve my 4mm WCW Big Gold in a similar fashion! Thank you!
I’m so worried about cracking the plate. I’ll never try it
if it cracks, you can now make a custom harcdore belt! get a designer to make u a strap perhaps. get some tape, BOOM!!
I like flat belts better
I curved my Figs inc Classic WWF Intercontinental Championship belt,& it came out perfectly!!!!!!

I say if you're scared of cracking it don't do it...try doing it with the plate off the belt and try applying heat to loosen the metal.
Can you curve commemorative belts ?
Probably not they will crack
NO NO NO NO it it will crack

That’s not a curve that’s bend down the middle I looks like you kneed the poor thing. It’s too sharp of a bend to look like a curve
Do you think you could curve a big sliver ECW belt?
Never tried it but I don't think I want to try it
