![]() ![]() i bend roll cages for drag cars all the time and they have to fit real tight so i make cardboard templates and put them in the cars first!!! so i dont waste any expensive chrome moly tubing. if you bent mor than 90 just line it up were the pipe lines up at the outer part of the radius. after you draw what you want take your sample bend, put it on your drawing and line up the side with the mark on the pipe with the inside of the bend then just move the sample bend down till it lines up with the outside of your bend. the bends usually look a little different on the side were you start bending and the side that is at the end of the bend. it is best to go from the inside out on both bends. you dont have to draw in the radius ,just the width of the 2 bends and put a center line on your drawing. draw on the ground or a piece of cardboard what you want to bend. any were befor it starts bending will work. i use the edge of the die before it starts bending. This is very easy !!!! just take a scrap piece of pipe, put it in your bender and mark on the pipe a line around the pipe. ![]()
