I have a 1942 1.5 ton Peerless hack saw. Just as tight as when they put the war production board tag on it back then. Many superior things up against a band saw, although the upright Do-All's are superb.
Fascinating! Now I have to Google mandrel to see what is going on inside the tube that keeps tube from kinking but still allows mandrel to be moved afterwards. Always hear about mandrel bent exhausts. Thanks for posting.
I’d have liked to see a close-up of that mandrel, I’ve seen and used spiral mandrels for round (circular section) tubing but not foe square. My question is how is the mandrel extracted after the bend? Interesting 🤔 Great video, but would have been better with more explanations of what the mandrel is and how it works in practice. ❤🇷🇴
@@clivehorridgepretty sure the mandrel just keeps retracting out the back behind the bends. That’s why it starts with the tube all the way in the machine, and bends are done starting at the front. It just supports the inside of the tube where the bend starts so it doesn’t collapse/kink inwards. The mandrel always stays at the bending point as the tube feeds through while bending. That’s just what I’m gathering from watching the video, but could be way off. Lol
@@leebdj1949your correct, the mandrel his held in position by the bar you see at the beginning of the bending process . Because the tubing is being drawn or pulled by the bending process, the bar (with the mandrel at the end) is only under tension. The mandrel would be tight in the tube at the end of the process because the tubing was trying to deform during the bend process but cannot because the mandrel is only slightly smaller than the inner dimensions of the tube. When he retracts the mandrel, it only moves a short distance back from the bend before it is again loose in the tube. Hope that helps.
I've been a general machinist for twenty nine years, and here's a metalworking machine that I knew nothing about before watching this video. In fact, I never suspected that such a thing existed!
When I was in the structural steel fab business I swung by and picked up something we had bent at a bending business, the size of some of the stuff I saw laying there bent was pretty incredible.
I had some work done years ago by a company in Calgary Alberta Canada. They had a mandrel tube bender that could handle 14" x 14" x 3/4" square tube up to 40' long. They also had bending rolls for tubing where they required large radii from 20' to infinite. It was an education to go to their shop and watch how things got done.
A long time ago I built a frame for a vehicle out of the same material. Unfortunately I (we) had no idea that a tube bender for that material existed. We had to miter cut and weld each bend. A bender would have been really handy. Nice description. Thanks.
On Saturdays for overtime I would come in alone and prep those big tubes for the following work week. It was easier to navigate 24ft bundles of steel thru a giant convoluted factory designed to accommodate 20 ft material maximum. But I had 24ft stock go figure. I used to leave the bands on a bundle of 24pcs 2 X 4 X.250 bang all the ends flush, do a squaring cut and cut frame rails and crossmembers with angles, compounds, bevels, for Semi trailers and H.D containers In Mass. Then hand lay them out because yet again they dont fit in any Cnc milling center, and mag drill all the precision holes by hand. 🙄Surrounded by millions of dollars of current gen Cnc equipment. It was so weird to step back in time to my beginnings when it was all Dykem and hand layouts. Your vid brings back some of my fondest but most frustrating times i had as a machinist LOL!🤭🤯😜
Bendtech sure takes the guess work out of the process. Love the old power hack, I had one for a while but with two band saws it didn't make sense to keep it. Thanks for running through start to finish 👍
I was going to be rude and ask what a machine like that would cost, but googled it instead. You certainly would want to have a lot of work for it, once paid for :). Very interesting to watch it in operation.
Short and to the point, thanks for sharing, please share your location & if you can do this for other people who work on DIY projects, that will encourage people to make stuff & of course keep your machine busy generating money.
Iv'e never seen anything like this, but some how always wondered how bending large tube like this done. Now I know, that's an impressive piece of kit you have there, good job as well. Making it look easy.
Every time I see one of your videos or IG posts I want to find a way to put these to use. lol. I picture a frame for a body dropped mini truck, but that would have to be in the future. Awesome work!
I always knew there was some machine that did this but I never saw one or one actually being used. Very cool. When you first showed the machine I was trying to figure out how it worked and how it would keep the rails straight and not buckled. As you went through it, it was like a light bulb going off and all the parts made sense.
Wow that’s a very nice setup and it’s telling me that unless I get into frame manufacturing it’ll be cheaper and easier to just buy this guys frame rail kit 👍🏻👍🏻
@@cornfieldcustoms thanks 👍. I have been binge watching your channel upon discovery of it. Not to be offensive but how did you afford to rent a place to work and get people to let you work on their cars at 20 years old ? I tried it for 8 years and 4 of them I was across the street from a one man street rod shop and I watched him struggle at it for 4 years before I switched to the oilfield just to make decent money. He stopped after 3 more years and got a good paying government job but I know we both didn't want to.
It was tough in the begging. The shop I rented in the begging was a total dump and cost me about $200 a month and was small and in the middle of no where. There were months I had to walk the ditches looking for cans to recycle to make the bills. I took on jobs I didnt want to, some times had no business taking on, but it was all a learning opportunity. I had a few friends that let me work on their cars at the time, and was building my own hot rod on the cheap. Once people heard what I was doing and saw the work I was doing, more work came in. It slowly evolved over the years and model changed completely as my skill set grew. The biggest thing that helped me in the begging was only getting stuff I could pay cash for to not get upside down, and I would always be working on a small personal project I could sell if money got tight for a while. Thanks for checking out my channel and if you to see more pics and stuff I dont have on here yet check me out on IG - Cornfield customs ltd
I would think these frame rails would be a good typical example. 4 bends 2 x 4 x .188 per 2 at todays 12/13/22 prices would cost approx ?? Great video. Thanks for sharing the process. Now to dig in your videos and see what else is there. New subscriber. Edit. A young Ron Covell. That is a compliment. Looks like fun to view some.
Cool tool indeed. Constructive criticism, your time lapse music is a bit loud compared to your dialogue, at least for my ears. I want to hear what you have to say but the music was verging on uncomfortable. I like your short to the point approach overall.
Thanks for taking the time to create the video and show how this is done. I definitely will look forward to using you in the future to bend some rails.
It would make it so much more viewable if you would play the 'music' at the same volume as the dialog. Keep running to turn the damn volume down and then I can't hear what you are saying!!
Outstanding! As a Millwright at American Airlines we had a bender like this for the heavy structural things we fabbed! I'm working on a new project of mine, and it would be so awesome to have you bend things that I cannot! Rectangle tubing I cannot bend over 2x2 without building one just for that... timeliness lol! KUDO'S sir... I am stoked to have found your YT location! Respectfully, Seth
Nice video, please, next time set the music and voice to the same levels. Tired of getting my ears blasted when voice is very low and then......blaring music
You're 100% correct. The music was way too loud but quite frankly, videos don't need music in the background anyway. I don't know why people that put videos together think that they have to have music in the background other than professional singers that are making music videos themselves. If people want to listen to music or watch a video with music they're obviously endless videos on RUclips where they can just sit there and watch the music videos. Just leave the damn music out. People want the content and are interested in what the people have to say. Nobody wants to hear the background music.
Movies are the same I thought they are all professional, but the voices you can never here and the music blasts your ears I'm sure I could work the movie sounds better and I know fuck all.

That’s cool to see how it’s done. One minor critique though is the music volume during your timelapse segments. Trying to watch at work in the lunchroom and I was constantly adjusting the volume because I couldn’t hear you after I turned down the music.
Awesome video. I have a cheap Chinese mandrel tube bender. I have to finish our house build first before I can start building something. Can't wait to start bending tube for my Jeep. That bending machine is amazing. Sure makes it look easy with those powerful hydraulics.
WOW! That's a serious bender! Makes my jd2 look like a little tinker toy. Beautiful work. The saw was interesting. I have never seen one like it. Great explanation about your procedure.
Being new to watching your content,I didn't know what kind of trailer frame you were bending. Well all the way at the end,I learned it was for a car frame. Something else, the volume of your background music was way higher than the rest so I had to keep moving volume so as to not wake up the whole household. Still, an interesting video, thanks!
Amazing that the dies have so much pressure on them that the tube has to stretch without spreading/malforming much. I'd love to know how this business started, that equipment is no joke...
thanks for watching. I started as a basic hot rod shop, and evolved over the last 17 years growing my skill set, tools and raising my quality standards as i went. now i specialize in high end metal shaping and tube chassis

Its cool machine my old man used one like this in his shop. It didn't have the fancy computer. He used it for his larger oval stainless railings real nice stuff they put on yachts.
Always good to see pro's work. And see where and how they spend their money. Not electric winch but an expensive tube bender. Spending money and placing effort on where it does the most good. Great video and great work. It looks easy but it is not. You also know your bender and how much to bend allowance and bend back to get the result you are looking for.
Thumbs up for content!!! wouldn't hurt my feelings to hear the machine rather than the music! That's a truly awesome machine!
Yes, please drop the music. We want to hear the real music

Amazing! I've seen plenty of round stock benders over the years, but I have never seen one for rectangular pipe before. Lovely work.
