Hi All,
Not really new to welding but I am new to bending metal.
I bought a Lincoln Welder mig many years ago. It sat in the box for 4 years before I fiinally pulled it out. So far I have made several projects for around the house. Mostly yard art stuff. But I also made a bed frame for my daughter. She was 2 at the time and was starting to crawl out of her crib. Well I made a frame that used the same mattress and spring setup form the crip. The look on her face was priceless. Now at age 4 she is requesting "a big bed" like her brother. So I am going to be making a twin sized bed frame for her next. It will be much prettier than the first one. This time I will take the HF bender w/scroll attachment and make something close to what I've seen others do here. I think she will be thrilled.
Hope you all can tolerate my questions on getting the bender and scroll thing down...
