Method for bending a vinyl floor plank to form a stair nose plank
A method for bending a vinyl floor plank to form a stair nose plank. A first bending gap and a second bending gap are established. Heat is applied to a vinyl floor plank along a first bend location. The vinyl floor plank is then placed into the first bend gap. A user presses downward on the vinyl floor plank to form a first right angle bend. Heat is applied to a vinyl floor plank along a second bend location. The vinyl floor plank is then placed into the second bend gap. The user presses downward on the vinyl floor plank to form a second right angle bend. The first right angle bend and the second right angle bend combine to form a U-shaped bend to form a stair nose plank. In a preferred embodiment the stair nose plank includes a locking mechanism along its edges. In a preferred embodiment, the first bending gap is established between two blending blocks and the second bend gap is established between two second bending blocks. In a preferred embodiment heat is applied by utilization of an acrylic bending machine.
