Spring Steel Project
I'm about to undertake a project and was considering using spring
steel as a backing where flexibility is needed. The spring steel will first have to be cut into strips and then shaped, and I was looking for experiences from anyone who has worked with this material. Is it difficult to cut? And how difficult is is to bend into needed shapes? I'm open to better material recommendations if there is a different alloy that maintains it's shape better after stress is removed. Thanks.
