Do you want to do this on a production basis, or just once/twice?

The minimum cold bend radius for most materials is beyond 1T. I'm sure it's
more for most stainless alloys. Do you have a torch? Does it matter if the
material's properties change due to the bending (they'll change one way or
another anyway).

Regards,

Robin

an eye, about 1/4 inch inner diameter, at the end of some 3/16"
stainless wire.

I'm guessing some sort of simple jig should do it, but fooling around
with some nails hammered into a piece of wood succeeded only in
convincing me that I'm fairly thick.
