Can branches bend?

It depends on the branch's moisture content. Dry branches break if you try to bend them. The greater the moisture content of the branch, the further you can bend it before it breaks. Manufacturers who need to bend wood, for example when making musical instruments or wooden wheels, put it in a steamer to increase the moisture content. Immediately after removing the wood from the steamer, the worker bends the wood into the shape he/she wants then clamps the wood to hold that shape until it dries.
