Re: Welding Newbie

Dowels were cut longer above the main frame so you can also bend small size of metal at the top

Here, a tubing was put for bigger angle bend.
need more jigs to bend round tubing, square tubing, angle bar etc.
you know someone who can fabricate? of course - cheaper 😀

@ Ossie

Thanks for posting your Bender build dimensions. I'm positive the Metal Community appreciates it. I too for one.

By the way your welder has variable current adjustments compared to the Powercraft 200A which has around 6 or 7 fixed settings. It would be sound advise to would be welder buyers to choose the variable adjustment model so as to have more range in current output fine tuning.

ganda nyang site na nakita mo, cheaper yung mga price nila. as long as magagamit mo sa shop at may ROI (return on investment) go go go hehehe

Re: Welding Newbie

tried this afternoon the capability of the bender for straightening the 10mm square metal bar:

almost there:

hindi kaya yung dulo since napaka liit nung bend, kailangan talaga ng another jig hehe but, not bad na rin 😀

Re: Welding Newbie

Its a simple but certainly very useful tool. We're all sure of that.

I am almost sure to work on one - together with suggestions coming from the pros.

Great work Ossie ! 🙂

Agreed. Mas comfortable talaga nakatayo then sometimes pwede mo lapitan ng tingin para mas kita weld puddle.
