Has any one built a jig or other device for making U bolts (round & right angle).

I have used them for smaller sized bending forks. I weld them to a piece of 3/4" square stock that fits in the hardy hole in my anvil.

we made a die holder using a tube ,to cut the threads after we bent them with anvil horns and a bending bar.

i have jig some were that i use when bending different u bends and right anglefor u bends i try to find a pipe or tube that is the size i need i tack weld it to a 1/4 plate i have then i tack weld a piece of angle on the side to hold it in place when i bend the u its hot of course for right angle bends i have a square plate with taped holes in it 5/16 and 3/8 i bolt down a piece of angle next to abolt that is screwed into the plate the just bend it to what ever degree bend i want just repeat for the othe bend as well if i need to make multiable then i will line up two holes so that both bends can be made by screwing it the second bolt also all bends are made hot
