bending angle by notching to bake round corner.
Several years back someone wrote up a technique to bend angle iron by cuttinging a series of slots rather than a vee notch so you ended up with a nice round corner.
Anybody still have this info still? |

Anybody still have this info still? I don't remember any special "technique" beyond the obvious but you can adjust the curvature to taste by resawing each slot after bending it shut. Practice on thin cardboard to make a template. -jsw |
