This video was awesome! I've been wanting one of the JD2 benders for awhile now. I'm actually building a mini bike trike but am using 1" square tubing for it! I can't wait to see how this turns out in the end. Keep the videos coming and I'll keep supporting and watching them!

Nice work. Figuring out the rolled radius into the tight bends takes some work. I've had my JD2 bender since 1988, before they were called JD2. My 1" and 1.250 dies are the ones I've used the most. Has to be miserable working incognito with the full face helmet. New subscriber here.
