The bottom line is that you do not need anything complicated to make quite complex bends. A notch in a piece of metal or hardwood will work along with a length of tube to put over the wire or bar you are bending. Do some experimenting and see what works; experience is the best teacher sometimes |
that was extreamly helpful to me... can you provide me with the tools name or perhaps a company who makes it. This way I can go out and buy the contraption. thank you!
