Tube bending problem update
About ten days ago, I posted that I had been having a problem finding a
tube bender to bend some .020" x 1.125" 304 stainless tubing. I got a lot of replies from NG members and I checked out all of the recommendations. Ned Simmons suggested Tollsforbending.com, I called them and Paul their sales guy, he was super. He sent me to their sister company Denver Pipe and Tube, where I spoke with Larry. Great Guy, very knowledgible, but they didn't have the right tooling . Then Paul sent me to R&B Wagner in Milwaukee. After much delay getting a quote back from them, I got their quote this AM. I will be shipping my tubes to Milwaukee and they said they could turn the job around in 10 days!!!!!!!!YAH!!!!!!! So this week end I will be polishing (putting a No.4 finish) on my tubes and Monday I will send the tubes to Wagner. Thanks for all your help Greg |
