Question: How does Alice straighten bowling ball blanks?

Answer: Cut your pieces no longer than 3 inches to lessen the possibility of cracking. Place the pieces in the oven at a temperature of 190 degrees. Leave them in the oven for about 10-15 min., check the pieces in 10 min., if they are flexible, take them out of the oven one at a time. Place the piece on a board and clamp one end, pull the other end down and clamp. Let them cool and you now have a fairly straight piece.
