Jeff Seelye Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Thank you Frank T. for the tong idea. I have some offset ones but I like that idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forgemaster Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Drewy Androo, Yeh guys, a shank hook, that one is about 25 ton MS, one of the last ones that Dumbrell bent (I took that photo while sitting on the starter switch driving with my foot). Only Difference is we are going to bend it under the hammer, something I have never done before so I am the lacky and Moon is the master, I have only bent them in a horizontal press. We are looking at about 10 ton, that will be 3 7/8 dia for the body so should give us something to get our teeth into. We are having a practice this weekend in my shop, should be fun. Sorry to hijack this tong/hook bending thread all you other guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
