Re: trunk bending bar
you can make one easy with a bit of flat bar, doesnt need to be wide, but the longer it is the more leverage you will have, drill a vouple of holes about 50-60mm apart drill a few more holes as this will change how it bends etc. hole size 10-12mm. put a nut and bolt through two holes, a bit of rubber hose from the garden of the bolts, and there it is
