| Tubing/bar straightener
As I'm starting to practice w tube and braze more I'm looking for tools to help ease some of the steps. Instead of cutting sections off and trying to straighten them I'd like to try and feed it as a whole straighten then cut. So I know of the trick benders that people make and use, but how about a straightener? All my brake line is in bulk rolls so it's not as easy to manipulate as the shorter straight sections. I'd like to maybe hang it on a bar and just feed it out through some sort of roller setup or something of the like!! Any input,ideas,setups, or tools you his have pics of?? I appreciate the help and I'm working with 3/16 brakeline and sometimes solid rod. -Dan |

I seem to remember a thread in this section over the summer that was showing off industrial, as well as room made, tubing straighteners. Dig around a bit, I'm sure the tread isn't too buried. |

Ive got dies I use for making bends on my fixture table that I use in succession between two plates to straighten tubing. Same concept as this one... Tube Straightener ...from Eastwood but mine is fixed for 3/16 diameter only. |
