Just one
I kept the handle underwater (not the head) for two days, then clamped it to a 4x2 with a shim, when it looked straight I heated the handle with a hot air gun
Then left it sitting for a week still clamped up (I actually did this on my bench then transferred it to the 4x2 later)

Top job, Tony  :tu:

Do you need over bend it in the opposite direction or just the right amount to get it to set straight?
