Got to test the bender out today! worked awesome less than 40 seconds to make a bend... very controllable also... I have to change how the jack is bolted to the stand so that I can get a true 90 degree bend, right now with the pivot arm it stops at 80 degrees... Since I dont have class tomorrow I will finetune it and report back! Its incredible.. the jack has a 3/8in plat with dual springs to bring the jack back down and I wasnt paying attention and the 2 half in plates I made my pivot with hit that plate and it bent all three plates fairely easy... after I noticed what I was doing I rounded the pivot plates and it finnished real easy! The bender didnt creek or distort anywhere it was great! ill post a vid when i get the jack remounted...

those last ones are cool! they have a unique shape... and only about 75 bucks... The guy said it was tough to get the bulb swaped from 12 to 24 volts but it would def look cool!

I can get them alot cheaper. I wonder is its that hard to find 24v bulbs. Any way I'm going to order extra so i can get a set front and rears for my truck, I have a working black out drive light and can get the proper head light switch to make it all work if your interested. Just let me know

LOL im too lazy for the free workout... LOL its pretty slick the tubing is held into the first part of the die and it pivots in a 1/4 circle motion and then theirs a roller that forms the tubing to the die as it makes its arc.

You were painting it green weren't you? I do have a black out light laying around, it mounts next to the driver side composite light, it's used for driving with nvg's completes a military theme tho
