Here's my homemade bender First i made a die Then I made a follower I rounded up some hardware Tapped some holes got all the parts layed out eveything set and ready Then I did some test bends Once I was happy with the bends I cut some threads Then my threading die gave up on me and started messing up the threads. just ordered another 3mm die and my next attempt will be with plain steel rod Last edited by 1tonscout; 02-10-2013 at 12:33 AM. |

Here's some angle plates I've been working on this week. Now I've got to drill and tap some holes in it. Then its out to get case hardened and I'll finish grind it in a week or two. When ever I get some more free time. |

| Re: Lets see your handmade tools! Hell yeah !! You should be able to clamp down anything you can possibly think of. In machining and fabrication I dont believe in the word "Overkill"...its not in my vocabulary. With those plates the possibilities are endless. Nice Work Man !!

| Re: Lets see your handmade tools!
nothing fancy but i needed a bender so i built this.. ^^drilled a couple holes and put the round stock through and welded it from the underside so there was no welds on the top to get in the way..also welded another plate 90* from the other one so i could clamp it into a vise |
