Raleigh - Bending 2"x.250"?

[shawn]

Just like the title says. Anybody have a model 32 ... or want to try it with their 105?

I'm no bending metal tech - but this sounds like it will take some serious effort...

Just preheat the tube with a torch and it bends easy

I thought the point of 2" .250 wall was not to bend!

Hope you get it bent

I've heard multiple times that it can be done with a hf pipe bender...

The Harbor Freight pipe kinker will definitely do it. The only problem is it wastes a foot and a half of tube if you want the bend at the end of the piece. A Although, if I plan it right I might get both pieces out of the same bend.

For some links? A bender with a 7-8" clr for 2" tube ain't gonna leave you with a whole lot more. I know that tj isn't that badass yet.

It's more badass than you know.

But no, this is for some secret squirrel stuff. If it turns out well, I'll let you know about it.
