I actually tried it yesterday after work. I steamed a couple of practice pieces for 30 minutes and they didn't break. I think I will soak them though. And I need to re-build my jig. I was trying to bend by pulling the middle of the piece instead of the ends.
The spring back has what's got me concerned. I guess its just a swag as to how much I need to over bend.
I have read some of the references from google, most of them are about bending larger pieces for hull planking. I was able to select my wood and get quarter sawn pieces, that should help.
I'll let it soak for a week and see how it goes!
