Title: Tube bender
Post by: Wyattboche on October 29, 2013, 05:19:53 PM

I have a log splitter laying in the weeds. Is there somehow I can make it into a hydraulic tube bender using the ram,pump, and hoses. Would use a 110 volt hydro pump.

I would convert one of the one current models on the market.  Most are designed with the conversion in mind.  And the dies (where the $$$ gets tied up) are readily available and cheap.  Custom +custom+custom=$$$,$$$.
