Here are a few photos of a roll bender I am building. It is close to being done.

Clearly being used to bend 3/16 brake line? Wow that is impressive very heavy duty, nice work!

 

[motobilt]

Nice.... I have been thinking about building one. I really like what you have going.

 

[Heavymetalmechanic]

I think the word I am looking for is Stout, or Burly... That thing is a beast! What is the capacity going to be?

Nice work! I love to see the homemade equipment photos here on GJ.

That looks insanely heavy duty, what are you planning on bending with that?

I'm curious why you are using a hydraulic ram for the adjusting wheel? I have one just about as stout as this but I just have a hand adjustment because when I get close on size sometimes it just takes a little turn to get it on the money. It also gives me constant pressure...........just curious.

Amazed at the scale of this thing.

How much is this monster going to weigh?

 

[A_Pmech]

Very nicely built!

I have a couple questions. What RPM and HP is your input motor? What are you using for gear reduction?

I'm considering building one of these, and am doing a little research on the drive systems.

Thanks.
