Looks nice Dan, you should check into that BendTech software, looks to be a big time saver.

Get to work and make something!!sure have! when i talked to you about that cage, i didn't even know how to weld then! this will defnetly get some use, i believe i'm the only one in the GA club with a bender ;) once i get a summer job and get some more $$ for a die and tube there will be some sick work coming out of my garage.

...with the electric over hydraulic conversion.
I'm still fighting with the powers in charge over what was ordered, what was paid for and what was delivered, namly the software.
Probably going to just have to order it myself this summer.

straight from the designer.. "bluesman2"

"It's an air over hydraulic jack... you can get it from www.maxtools.com (http://www.maxtools.com) part number ME3083 (has gone up to $99 now. This whole thing is documented very well on Pirate... Search on hillbilly hydro... I made a couple of posts, so searching my user name is good too."
