My query is..... is it possible to steam bend white oak more than once if required?

Not having bent any wood before I was wondering, if, in the event that that it springs back too much, is it possible to repeat the process using different placings for the clamping blocks?

Not much springback when he does it...

I love the utter bull**** that permeates the video 'water that is
repeatedly boiled loses its wetness'

'you can't bend conifers' etc etc.

HE cant. Other people can...

Reminds of Hugh Fearnley Wittingstall

'A rolling boil is hotter than simmering'

Utter ********.
