stew2 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 (edited) Stopped and got some more steel today at the supplier. I got a chunck of 3/4" Round I saw one hanging on Nick's wall last weekend and thought it looked cool I had never tryed any 3/4 round. Figured I could do something with it since I've done bigger but it's been a while lot harder than I remeber. It was supposed to be a fish but didn't have enough in me to cross the ends. I was still pretty happy with it took about 4 mins. till I gave up trying to cross the ends.3/4"x47" round bend Edited February 12, 2010 by stew2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost fell off my chair when I saw someone else posting a vid of a braced bend Great job on the 3/4!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl, i don't want to post any braced bending video's because i am so far behind you, as i get closer i'll start again (I'm still braced bending a couple times per week, watch out) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim71 Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Nice bend! Fishing a 3/4 bar is EXTREMELY hard to do. Judging by the bend radius of your steel, I'd say you had a decently tough batch as well. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
