PM me a price if you think you can get them done before Ennis that way they don't have to be shipped.

That might be iffy I have alot on my plate between now and then

no problem. i understand.

So for my first real piece I make with my bender I make a 150" 6 bend pain in the ass..... But it came out alright! I'm pretty happy with it (its not welded on there so it's not aligned or anything I just set it on there)

1st try? It looks good!

Yup 1st try. I only have 5 ft of tuning left tho. Waiting to get more in at my supplier.

Looks good Matt.

thanks

I ran out of tubing. Ill finish all the welds and call it a day on the bed cage for this weekend. I have to work on the ranger anyway.

there will be 4 diagonals all going from the center out btw

That looks really good for your first try! What bender do you have?

yeah i was expecting to have to redo it in the back of my mind.


its a JD2 model 3

this joint is going to be crazy looking when its finished. there will be a diagonal at each corner like the one im holding. Times like this is when i LOVE my tube notcher

I've been really looking at picking up a model 32 to play with. Seeing this makes me want one more.

A good notcher makes a huge differrnce. Using a basic notcher and then a grinder to make good notches sucks. Especially when end to end length has to be just right. tube work is looking good.

Wow this thread is really making me want to get a bender and a nice notcher. The end product looks killer and the right tool always makes things so much easier.
