Bending Macassar Ebony

I use a heat blanket and jig to bend my sides. I do as John has advised as far as sequence. Is Macassar Ebony any more challenging than Mahogany or Rosewood ? Is there anything I should be aware of when bending?
Thanks
Travis

I've bent about 10 sets of Macassar Ebony and had decent luck but it never hurts to play it safe.
Where you would normally spray water, I'd use a mix of water and Super Soft 2 along with the wet paper technique.
Please do share your results with the rest of us and photos are always welcome.

John,
What temps and times did you use?
