"I just
purchased your tube bender #1 plans a couple of days ago. Great looking set
of plans...it
seems to be dialed in just right for my needs and it has become one of the
most valuable tools in the shop."

are very well drawn and very detailed instructions.."

This
Tube Bender is capable of
bending structural tube of the following diameters: 19.05mm (¾”), 22.2mm
(⅞”), 25.4mm (1”) and 31.8mm (1¼”), which are the most common sizes used in
motorcycle frame and buggy chassis building. Smaller sizes can also be
accommodated by making additional die sets.
The No. 1 Tube Bender is ideally
suited to anyone wanting to bend light precision
tube (not
pipe) for everyday projects, yet does not
want the complexity or expense of a large commercial set-up. The tube bender
can be quickly de-mounted and stored away when not in use.
The No. 1 Tube Bender is designed
with the utmost simplicity of construction in mind. The stand and most of
the other components can, in most instances, be made from common steel
off-cuts found in the average workshop.
No expensive hydraulic ram is
required for operation, just a smattering of good old-fashioned grunt to
pull the handle around!
Some hydraulic benders will only
bend up to 90 degrees or in some instances 120 degrees. This tube bender
will bend a full 180 degrees with relative ease.
With these plans you
make your own dies from the included drawings
from a choice of engineering
materials.
The tube bending dies necessitate
being turned on a lathe, but even a wood lathe can be employed to make the
dies if preferred. The only other tools required are a scriber or craft
knife, a tape measure, a setsquare, an adjustable bevel, a
cut-off saw (or hacksaw), a pedestal
drill (or hand drill), 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, 20mm, 24mm drill
bits, a welder, and an angle grinder or file for finishing.
