Hot rod

Again I'm not very good at this.

So the better part of the weekend was spend milling down two plates to modify my current tube bender. Right now I think I can successfully bend .5" and maybe .75". I would like to try my hand at some .875" tubing, but it won't even fit in the bender with the current tube clamp. With that in mind the goal of the plates is to extend the clamp just enough to get a piece of .875" tubing in there. It may fail, but you never know and at $130 for a pair of s-bend stays it's worth a shot.

I still have to cut out another piece, tap it and weld all three together. Wish me luck.
