  • Publication number: 20170080630
    Abstract: A system and method for bending a hollow core sheet using rods has at least one bendable rod that is inserted inside a channel of a hollow core sheet so as to strengthen it and increase its malleability, which offers the possibility of pliancy to the hollow core sheet so that it can hold a shape. The reinforcing bendable rod is held in place via an applied angled force inside the walls of the channels. The hollow core sheet is then bent into a desired shape to create useful objects.
