Printed some bending dies to bend up some 1/4" aluminum rods for a handle on one of the million projects on going. I've seen guys use printed dies to bend 1" DOM tubing . Need some tweaks to the process as the initial test piece is a bit lop sided.
That is not a full radius on the ends of the handle, there is supposed to be about a 1/4" straight section between the top and bottom arcs. The rod slipped in the dies so its not symmetrical as I want it to be.
