Exhaust Mandrel Bends, Layout and cutting

  • Building exhaust can be a daunting task, especially when you are trying to maximize flow and make it look nice. Here is the easiest way I have found to lay it out and cut it with the least amount of mess and ensuring straight cuts on your tubing. Straight cuts also make for easier jigging and welding. This is my method.

    Thank you so much for this video!
    I'm from southern India and I can't get no local welders to pie cut a custom exhaust for me. My motorcycle is up on the jacks for a month now due to the lack of a custom bend pipe and I've been watching a lot of pie cut related stuffs on RUclips lately. This video came as a suggestion and this is the direct solution to my problem. Thank you so much for this video once again.

    Excellent demo on how universal simple U bends can be! They can really be a problem solver in tight scenarios. Also, gotta get me some of those clamps!

    Great video. I'm a fairly new welder. Been trained and had some industrial structural stick experience just not might and/or exhaust. I'm designing my own exhaust from the tips of my long tube headers for my 6.0l ls motor that's lsa boosted and I've bought 2 kits to do this and am excited when I find a video like yours specifically that give me new ideas. Thanks again. If you have any might tips for settings that would be cool. I have a 120v titanium from hf and it's great just new again at getting her dialed in just right. Thanks again.

      Thank you! I appreciate the comment. That sounds like it will be a deadly combo making pretty big power too! I haven't made videos in some time, but I am working on some sheet metal welding videos for autobody. Eventually I will do exhaust videos.

    Great explanation! I suppose TIG has better control. But you could finish this out w MIG?

    • @MagnaMachineWorks
      @MagnaMachineWorks  2 года назад

      Absolutely you can! I have done a few exhausts with just using the MIG

    Those clamps are cool
    I love building headers but hate building an exhaust system if that makes any sense

    • @MagnaMachineWorks
      @MagnaMachineWorks  2 года назад +1

      Thanks! I totally recommend them if you do lots of exhaust work. I totally get what you are saying about that! Its the challenge of building headers that I crave! Building just an exhaust is fairly boring and I actually don’t like crawling under and out of the bottom of a car haha

    Nice welding with kid in flash distance

    • @MagnaMachineWorks
      @MagnaMachineWorks  2 года назад +1

      I can assure you that this kid was completely safe. She was wearing a welding helmet, safety glasses and has welding gloves her own size. Also, discussing the process so that she understands the dangers and safety mitigations goes a long ways. Its not the first time this kid has been around welding, I prefer to expose them to as much garage time as possible so that I can mentor, coach and guide the next generation

    Looking to do an exhaust for my car in a home garage never welded before, other than the pipes and Those special clamps what’s the skill level required?

    • @MagnaMachineWorks
      @MagnaMachineWorks  Год назад

      Beginner for sure. You can always use pieces of tape to hold the pieces together and peel it off once its tacked. You can also use a grinder and a zip cut to cut your tubing

    hate to burst everyones bubble, but there is only 1 horsepower differnce between mandral and regular bends

    • @MagnaMachineWorks
      @MagnaMachineWorks  2 месяца назад

      I would like to see the science of laminar vs turbulent flow and delta P on the flow rate. Not saying that is un-true, but better flow would be more efficient across the RPM range. In this example though, you can get way tighter bends than you can crush bends and the mandrel bends look way better
