I just sraight'n them by hand and they stay pretty good. Need a little tune up once in awhile!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

I've had my best results with heat.  I get them pretty hot, maybe 140 deg.  Sometimes you can hook straighten them, too.
Good judgement comes from experience.  Experience comes from bad judgement.

Yep, use heat on them.  When I cold straighten them I get a rude surprise later on.
