Little metal bender

(1/1)

Pete49:
I have posted this on HSEM as well but not everybody visits both sites
While not on a par with the stuff built on this site here is my feeble attempt at a small project I found in the July 1964 Popular Mechanics (Aussie edition). I needed to bend up some hooks to hang gear on and stretched it out to this item. Nothing like Powderkegs fantastic build but I enjoyed making it
Cheers
Pete

Brass_Machine:
I have talked and talked about making a bender and just haven't gotten to it yet. So, you are many steps ahead of me. Nice job.

How does this one work?

Hi boss or may I call you Eric  :thumbup: Its fairly lengthy to explain so I will scan the pics that came with the article to help out.
It actually surprises me that all the Popular Mechanics issues google has on its website I couldn't find this article..well not yet anyway. There seems to be some variation in the projects at least that varybut all the rest is the same including all the info to repair USA vehicles that we don't even see here :doh:
