In this video I make a acrylic bending tool, super useful for getting professional looking bends on plexiglass pieces. This thing is really easy to make and super useful for PC modding, which is what I mostly do. If you have any questions I didn't answer in the video go ahead and ask in the comments and I'll find you an answer!
Bit-techs KZfaq channel: / @bittech1
List of tools and materials used in the video (amazon affiliate links):
- MDF (or any kind of board) should be found locally, I got mine at home depot. I used two 2'x2' square boards.
- Wood screws also found locally, must have flat tops.

- Variable power supply: amzn.to/2AAue6n
- Dremel rotary tool: amzn.to/2Ocxsk0
- Dremel cutting discs: amzn.to/2OgZLxx

Thanks for the shout out! Loved the video, really handy tutorial, especially given how overpriced acrylic bending wires tend to be.

this is pretty cool! one thing I'd add is a protractor though, hot glued or something on the side, with a screw or nail to show at what angle you've bent.

Very helpful. For others watching, suggest you pre-drill holes if you use MDP as it can split if your screws are close to the edge to the board.

Thank you for the Vid! I have now built a similar machine but minus the extra baseboard, I just used a 3" ply strip and 4 small ply squares, 2 on each side. I also bought the recommended springs but found them way overpowered and strong, so I used a much softer spring from an Aldi box of assorted springs and it works fine, thank you again :)

I just got a Cricut Maker about a month ago and it's been so friggin awesome!!! Def makes my Mods easier and look so much more professional for mods for my channel!!! We're saving up for a house, we anticipate closing around this time next year, but I can not wait till we do. I'm going to build a giant shed sectioned off into 3 sections. My Studio/Editing Workstation - Work Area for all my Tools/An Area to paint - and an area for other stuff like lawn mowers and general storage. I can not wait!!!! Dude when are you going to start posting videos again??? We miss you man!!!! You've been such a huuuge inspiration to me for modding and starting a channel!!

@Dietec any idea if there would be a way to add a window to the " *Fractal Design Core 500* " case? or make the whole thing acrylic? i think getting this case because it fits longer gpus and being a form factor that i still like but not being so expensive. the mounting system makes it impossible i think? i thought this bender would be perfect to get the bends done but i would not be able to mount it. any ideas? also do you play borderlands? i think it would be a nice theme for a pc mod :D just a suggestion
