petere76 Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I got this idea from a set of plans I saw for a hot bending jig (re: blacksmiths journal). I turned a steel bushing at .62 OD bored for .375 ID at 2.0 LOA. This bushing allows the use of the set of NH bending dies supplied with their Chinese bench top bender. The dies are stout enough and they work well while mounted to the .5 IN drilled and tapped plate. The rig will vise mount or can be inserted in the Hardy. In use, I did note that the .375 IN fabricated sliding bracket could be heavier in dimension. Photos attached. Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
