Tube bending
40inches - 9/10/10 at 09:18 AM

I have hired a tube bender for this weekend, and have just done the last bend. So,if anyone in the area can get here and wants any tubes bending, let me know, but be quick
I'll keep checking posts every 1/2 hour or so.

40 inches how easy is it to use and form the bends etc, as i was going to hire one to make to side protection bars to attach to my full cage, as MK wanted the car to do it and about £240..

I think it depends on tube size, I was bending 19 and 16mm tube, but the bender capacity was 35mm, I found it a doddle at those sizes.
I would hire a bender that exceeds your tube size, then you know it can cope
