very nice job! those baskets look like instep baskets great job! ever think about torching the steel rods before you bend them? makes them more plyable we did that in metal shop in high school. would probably reduce the "fun" part just remember to wear heat protection.

dude nice baskets...i know how you felt when trying to bend those loops...i had the same problem...but to make it easy..i went to sears or home depot..and bought a mapp gas kit...heated about 2 or so inches of that end red hot ..then it bends like butter...lot better than sore arms and busted thumbs...just keep the mapp gas out of he way of the bending area...
