I'm developing a product (electronic musical instrument) to make in my home
shop where I will need to repeatably bend brass, aluminum or stainless steel tubing with diameters ranging from say 1/4" up to 1". Typical tubing pieces will be up to say 24" long and may have three bends of up to 120 degrees and maybe 3" radius (tighter bends for smaller tubing.) I may have to make batches of up to 50 pieces at a time, and don't wait it to take forever. It would also be useful, but not essential to be able to do spiral bends. The commercially available machines/tools I've Googled are for larger tubing, or smaller tubing. I'm prepared to invest (no more than necessary) in buying a good machine if necessary, but have limited space. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. - Chris Graham |
