Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Thanks Doug...i finally broke down a couple yrs ago and bought a jd-squared bender and dies....I had always used a bender that I made some 25yrs ago...it worked ok but was slow..not content to leave the new bender alone I modified it by removing all the manual ratchet system and adding a air over hydraulic cylinder to it and changing it from horizontal to vertical bending direction..it's designed to be anchored to the floor or a work table and required a solid anchor to operate the rachet...I built it where it's self contained and relies on no anchor...got it on wheels so I can roll it to wherever I need it...and roll it out to the way when not in use...
