| bending a rool cage
I have made it to the point of bending up a roll cage for my Jeep. Just would like a few opinions before I start. 1- what type of tubing works best? 2- what tubing bender are you using to keep the radius tight? 3- what type of solder/braze are you using to make a nice clean job? I appreciate any input you can give. Thanks |

Thanks. The "bolt" tubing bender is pretty sweet and looks to work great. I wondered how they got the radius on the tubing so tight. Looks like I know what I need to build. |
