I've got a design I'd like to make but it requires bending C 3 X 4.1 with around 3 inch inside radius to a 45 degree angle. For tools, I've got a good propane forge and a #2 Hossfeld with 6 feet of leverage arm. Today with a scrap piece for trial and error, heat was not a problem but twisting was. I figure, if I fabricate a hold down to prevent the twist, it just might work.
Has anyone tried such a bend? If so, what problems were encountered? My questions are in effort to prevent waste. Thanks for any suggestions. Arlo
