Tubing bender

<< < (8/10) > >>

Darren:
People keep showing me nice shiny objects to make..... :dremel:

Well done Ralph, that works really nicely, simply and results in a tidy job....

I wonder if it can be scaled up to solids..... :scratch:

bogstandard:
Darren,

I think I have plans for a vice held solid bender somewhere, let me have a root in my 'bunker' magazine collection, and I will get back to you. I think it uses the same easy sort of build and principle.

John

Brass_Machine:
Nice job!   :bow:

I gotta get into the shop.

Divided he ad:
Thank you fellas  :)


I am sure that many different designs will pop up soon.... It's easy as always to change things around the important "core" measurments, you don't have to make it a 10mm thumb screw.(even though that's not on the plans at all!!)  If to have big hands or a crappy grip, make it 25mm!  :thumbup:


John, fun and not too tough to build... I always make stuff look too dificult in my mind.... Then I start to make it and it all turns out ok! (usually!!)
point noted about the tool position, I will adjust accordingly for the next run  :)

Bernd.... Tunes, Got to have some good tunes playing  :headbang:

Davd, messy workshop.....?  Don't know what you mean.... :scratch:  That's tidy!  :bugeye:

Darren, solids, you might have to re-design the clamping method for greater force, it can slip backwards if not enough pressure applied!  But that's what a Madmodder should do isn't it??  :borg:




Still got to finish it..... Later in the week  :thumbup:

Ok then.... Finally here is the finished article (except for any and all the rollers I might make!)

A bit of aluminium for the vice block, tapped for the pivot pin and the securing screw.




A tidy up of the roller frame rear end.




and of course.....



The knob for the handle  :headbang:


So a few shots of the end product and then the next time you should see this is in a vid (if I make one?) or the Aeolipile thread  :thumbup:








Oh, that big chunk of brass.... Soon to be made into a roller for the Aeolipile project  :dremel:




Ralph.
