getting the most camber from a STD type 1

[AggieDave]

This is something you *can* do in your garage, but I would recommend using either a modified break or a hydrolic press. Heating the metal will change its strength and brittleness, so that's not recommended on a stock piece. Of course you could fab your own arms out of DOM if you wanted, then you could simply use a tube bender. That wouldn't be too hard, just time consuming.
