ABSTRACT OF THE INVENTION A bending fixture for gravity bending a glass sheet or sheets to produce, for example, automobile windshields. The bending fixture has a pair of fixture sections, each having a shaping surface segment with two ends. The fixture sections are hinged to each other at their ends to define a single hinge axis. The hinge axis is immediately adjacent the support surface at the ends of the shaping surface segments and is generally laterally centered in the fixture. The bending fixture supports a flat cold glass sheet or sheets at the hinge area and at points laterally remote from the hinge area. In the closed position after bending, the support segments together form a continuous peripheral support surface for the glass sheet. -26-
