Bending an existing deck?

If I was told I couldn’t add a kick tail to a deck, I’d use dog hair, epoxy, and newspaper and do it just to say I did.

I printed this kicktail handle out of nylon-X and screwed it to a deck…

its true. You can bend the shit out of veneer over some hard angles with the use of softener.

but you’re not going to bend plywood and expect it to stay, if it even bends without cracking. Once the glue is inthere, its done. That’s why plywood holds its shape to begin with.

Huh? You can bend plywood in most imaginable ways if you kerf it properly. Knowing what you’re doing and proper use of wood glue/reinforcement after the fact is of utmost importance tho.
