It's a Siegmund 28mm table

I have a lot of benders but recently I made this mount for the small stock bender to attach to my fixture table. It’s pretty awesome just doing this test setup. Got a fixture holding up the material and one for a stop…so a lot more repeatable than most…and multiple bends in the same plane over...

Love it, use it almost daily. I pay for the first tier...$20 I think. It does sometimes forget some details if I have a long 'conversation' going. I don't think of 'trusting' or 'not trusting' it so much. It's a good tool that will get better. At the very least it's more like Tundra1 said; a...

.42 cents/lb here in Louisville, KY for hrpo (7ga and 1/4") I have only 3 employees so we're a pretty small fab shop.

My answer is no way. I worked at a shop trying to spot weld .063 aluminum and it only worked some of the time. We had industrial water cooled spot welders with special tips.

I own a fab shop and use Lehigh Valley. There are better abrasives...maybe the big names last 3x as long... but they cost 5x as much. Their ceramic (red) flappers are very good. I get metabo slicers from them (cut offs) and their clean and strip discs too.

I've sold a few of these but have a bunch left so if you see this ad in 6 months chances are I'll still have one. I kept one for my shop and they are very nice and smooth compared to the cheapy ones most people have. Thanks!

I wanted to build one a few years back but ran into the same problem. Did a bunch of searching. By the time you buy even cheap hydraulics you're almost to the cost of an entire press. I bought a HF 50 ton and modded it to my purposes.

I don't make bomber seats but I do -some- forming of aluminum. I use 3003 .063 aluminum and don't have to anneal it. Just playing around with the hammer on a shot bag I can make a pretty deep dish with no cracking. General bending, rolling, shrinking...no problems with that material.

Push nut.

The ones in my 6000 sq ft building are lapped 4" and welded, fwiw.

Looks good. I saw a couple instagram posts where they made straight fence panels and then sent each side through the section roller... Instant curved panels, no complex fitup.

If you can drill 2 holes...one large one small...or there are some convenient preexisting holes...you can use J-nuts. (j-clips...I'm sure there are other names for them.)

Sounds like you bought a meat saw. http://www.birosaw.com/

I have a shop outfitters 20/20...which is a high quality version of the stock bender pictured. I got if for very cheap with many round and square tube dies as well as the leverage multiplier. I've also made some tooling for it. Looks like they went ever further upmarket...

Nice overkill leveling feet: https://www.mcmaster.com/#catalog/123/1428/=19tvf5l For my welding tables (and a bunch of other stuff) I make sure there is a stout lower frame and pick them up and move with a pallet jack. Pallet Jack is cheap, can stay/stow under table, easily moves table and...

The right auction/auctioneer will get rid of all of it at once, and you'll get a check. Make sure they advertise well (do your homework on auctioneer) and you advertise the auction too on CL, boards, wherever.

This might not give you the look you want but... Coat the sheet first then cut. I've had to cut several electrical boxes on the plasma and the edge was surprisingly good.

Heard this before and I like it: "It's not scrap if you can use it"
