I posted this over weldingweb, but I thought it would do well here too..
Youtube vid of the thing in action at the bottom.
I am making a welding cart for the new Dynasty. I was hoping to piggyback off my MM212 but I figured leave well enough alone. This way I could put the plasma cutter up as well without it looking like the Tower of Pizza. (reference to my welding abilities
)
So I am using 1" tubing on the project and wanted to have a bit more strength so I would feel better about stacking my rigs on this thing.
I thought I could use my bender to do it, but it would look like ****. Same with using the oxy torch to bend them. Then it hit me... I can make a die to do this.
I found a 1" piece of scrap steel and cut a couple squares out of it.
So here's the die...
Here's one more picture with the finished product...
and a little video of the thing in action...
