Recommended Posts

Hey guys looking for advice on what’s the best tool that won’t break the bank but get the job done. I need to make some wire through forms for some slow fall jigs and they have to be pretty damm close so they fit the mold. 

What do you guys recommend for a tool and I really don’t want to use pliers so is their something out their. 

 

Ps for some reason I haven’t been able to load up any photos

make your own.  sounds smart assed, but its probably the best way. Realistically, the first one I made was a daunting task, took about 2 hours, After making the first one, others take 25 to 45 minutes,  There is a post buried somewhere in the archives

I used the information made mine from some 1/2" thick 1 1/2" wide  aluminum plate.  And have two bending arms, lay my wire in, get it oriented, Bend the first end, then the second and remove from bender. I made mine for the 3 sizes of CC forms I use. I also made one for the tail spin mold
