Thanks again everyone for the comments!

Shawn, with the Pro Tools die I have about $650 into it. Not bad at all for a bender like this.


I took some more pics of it finished.
















Tomorrow I'm gonna buy some tubing and give it a try on a roll cage.

Success!! This is a perfect 180 degree bend on 1.5 x .083 wall tubing.

Xtremely nice job. I don't have a doubt the cage will be of equal quality. That's good to see an 18 year old going in the right direction. That's great!
You can make lots of $$ in fabrication.....

That is sweet bro!...killer skills. It just freaks me out when you see something like this. you built that with YOUR own hands in YOUR own garage. Its one thing to fab custom parts, but to fab custom parts with your own handbuilt tools is awsome.

Thank you tonyton, overthebarss, and FJCRUZR!

I maybe would build another bender to sell if someone asked me for one. It was just so much work but thats what I like to do.

I'm working on my first project with the new bender and its doing great.

Here's a video that shows it bending one of the arms for a metal/tubing rack I'm building in my shop.
