Mooooommmm! Not fair! How come he gets all the nice toys...!
This is a "poor man's" big boy bender. This one's got one axis PLC control. If we can figure out how to make our parts on it I will modify it into a cnc bender. To buy a turnkey cnc bender for 4" is more than my house cost me.
I want to do a 4" radius in 4" stainless. You need a serious bender for that and they don't grow on trees.
There's two for sale in the entire country right now.
A close friends business does all my bending. They are always slammed and my orders get delayed. We discussed a few options and concluded that they could show me the ropes if I was up for buying my own bender.
There's a lot of additional support machines needed to go with a mandrel bender like a tube slicer, end finishers and other super niche stuff.

A bit mundane but I have wanted to bring this in-house for years and have been waiting for a deal on a the right one, finally
got my own flywheel surfacer!
I have about 15 2F flywheels so hoping I can do a few of them and offer an exchange on the website with easy pre-packaged/pre-labeled return shipping for cores.
