HF Compact Bender Projects

[nelsonic58]

Questions for you-all. Anyone know of a list of compact bender projects? Maybe a book ar a video would be nice. I've used mine to make scrolls and a Monte Carlo brace , but most of the time it just sits there collecting dust. Thats a shame ... help if you can.

I went to Hossfeld's website. They show many ways to use the bender. I do stock lambs tongues for handrails--got this idea from the Hossfeld website. I can crank lots of them out is short amount of time.

Tried to sell mine once, glad I didn't... comes in handy when I have a lot of repeat bends. Took a long time to figure out how to use it.

I'd be interested in hearing what others do with their benders, too.

My HF bender is painted a glossy rich RED, I have anchor bolts inside my shop and out in the driveway(for more room), and at best can make a few simple rt angle bends. I need a video, BAD!!

They have upgraded the manual pics. Here is a link to the new manual. At quick glance it looks pretty **** good.
