Bend cast iron, John? :-)


Yes, bend cast iron. Cold. It doesn't bend much, but it does bend.
And you don't need much of a bend.

Pretty common way to correct warped jointer fences, among other

Guess I'd be worried about not knowing where it would bend.
I'd be afraid of putting a curve in the top.

In any case, the "tape shim" method seems to do the trick.
