Mini Bender

Indeed. Working conditions that were outlawed in the West 100 years ago. Makes me think every time I buy some budget merchandise made in those parts of the world. I don't imagine there is any worker's compensation insurance for those whose fingers get caught in those unguarded presses or catch an eyeful of spot-welder splatter. And those unguarded sheet metal cutting wheels at the speed they are feeding those tanks through them to cut off the rag. Wow. Obviously those guys have been doing it a long time to reach that level of expertise. But one split second lapse of attention or miscalculation…

It is basically what I was talking about when I said two dowels in a plate and something to push the material around with. […]

Thanks for the clarification, Martin

… I would have never guessed from the first comment you made on this thread:

[quote] Quick and dirty bender for this sized material, drill and ream two holes in a suitable plate and drop in two dowels. Push the material to be bent around the dowels with a suitable piece of straight faced material. [/quote]

Yes starvation is a very useful management tool.
