I bent some tube today. I forgot how hard it is to figure out how to put 6 bends in 3 different planes on one tube.

This thing is getting really dirty. I hope I can drive it to a car wash soon...

your too cool for the garden hose?

looking good by the way

Garden hose? I've never though of using a garden hose to figure out bends. I'll have to try that next time. I think I'm all done with the complicated tubes now though. I haven't really thought much about the rear bumper, maybe it will have something complicated.

You can handle compound bends better than I can, that's for sure.

The worst ones are where the piece sticks way up above the bender, or you have to bend it backwards because the bender doesn't sit high enough off the floor. I actually had to take the bulbs out of one of my light fixtures today because the tube was going to hit them.

I request a side view....

Just be glad you didn't have to take apart some of your garage ceiling to make the bends, like I have before. :eek:
