thanks man. would you say that pinching it made it weaker?
um not really i don't think so but i play attack so weakness isn't tested so much

It's this in the FAQ? If it isn't it should be.

i decided, so i didnt have to unstring it, id just us the pressure method. ill just let is sit for like 3 days. this also doesnt weaken the plastic any. thanks to tonyfab for the idea

haha that it :agree: could
Id leave it for longer than that. Id suggest two weeks in a warm area if you can last that long.
And if you do come to unstringing it I found the oven BURNER method works the best. The heat is controllable and you can decide where you want it and you can see immediately if anything is going wrong.
Ill find a pic of my pinched blaze to show you how its done....
i have burned old crappy heads by doing this to test out which method is best, you have to be extremely careful when doing it or else ur screwed,
they boiling method is by far the most effective and safest way to pinch your head without losing it

I have melted sooo many heads with the microwave, with the burner i just consistantly mess things up. Anyways I have a question, I pinched my friends razer but I only pinched the bottom rail, if that makes sense what difference will this make?

I just pinch my bionic...sry no pics, however, what I did was I placed the head in a bench vice. Tied 2 sidewall strings in 2 of the holes. Boiled lots of water and placed it in a pan (for like dyeing), and let it sit for 5-20min.. Let it cool to room temp, then all done.
GCHS- that will make it more pinched, but a larger "face" to catch the ball with, the razer and blade already have this, but theres no problem with it, I think its better that way.
