Joe,
You neglected to include three IMPORTANT pieces of information: What is the diameter of the tubing you plan to bend? What is the wall thickness of said tubing? What is the smallest radius you plan to bend said tubing to? These are all things that need to be considered. Matt Colie Joe Bleau wrote: Anyone in this group had any experience bending SS tubing? I can do basic welding of SS but am fuzzy on bending procedures. A couple of tricks I have heard involve packing the tubing with sand and construcing a wooden die to form the tubing. I can visualize construcing a wooden form to do the bending but I can not visualize how to force the tube around the form. Perhaps one could use a come along? Suggestions appreciated. Joe |
