New Toy!!! JD2 53 Tube Bender


I got this bender over a month ago but didn't have time to actually even used it until now. It is probably one of the coolest toy I've gotten for my garage so far. Although my CNC plasma cutter was pretty nice since I built myself. I already had a hydraulic bender that I fab up before but it wasn't as stable and accurate as I would like. I always had to tweak the bends a few time to get it perfect. This thing almost builds the buggy by itself .. haha.

Very cool Van - congrats on the new tool. You make some nice buggies, this should help make life easier on some building. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

I am actually gonna start putting some time towards one of my other hobby, which is custom car fabrication. I love building chassis for hot rod and such. With this bender I can build some nice space frames and other aftermarket parts. Of course, I will still have some time here and there for an occasional buggy and such.

This does makes it alot easier to bend the buggy rails, especially the Stinger with the multiple complex bends.
