45-year retired steamfitter here who has bent, bowed, twisted, shaped, stretched & tweaked all kinds of steel and still do in retirement with hobby projects. But, I have never tried bending angle although I did have a need on occasion but did not think it was feasible without some fancy expensive equipment. I can now add this technique to my mental data base should the need arise again. Thank you, sir. Nice video work too.
@@cletusspucklerstablejeaniu1059 -yes that is my question too. Does steel lose its temper once bent or can it be re-bent to straighten it out. Also was this steel heated before bending or bent cold?
One of the better jigs I’ve seen, potentially very useful technique I’ll definitely use should I ever need to make curved steel frames. Wouldn’t have thought it would work so well. Thank you sir!
We actually use something similar to this to de twist titanium barstock before shipping it to the final customer. The old one was manual and we used a big adjustable wrench, the new one is hydraulic and has interchangeable dies for different sizes
Great video! I use angle iron a lot and in the past have paid good money to have it bent. Now I can do it myself, using this method! Thank you very much!

I’ve been thinking about doing corners for my backyard rail system out of angle iron and I have been wondering how to make corners, I found a way to do it. Thank you 👍
I’ve been making or fixin stuff for gettin close to 40 years now. If it’s iron an you can think it or break it I can make it or fix it. My favorite sayin is “ a good idea is best copied until beatin”. This is a great idea! I will be making that jig tomorrow! Thank you
Nice idea, here’s a thought to make it even better. If all the edges of the slots and top corners of the blocks were nicely rounded, there would be a lot less hash marks on the finished product. Thanks for sharing your videos.
The groove needs to be deep enough the flange never hits the bottom too. Then it wouldn't have any dents in the outside edge, just the rub marks on the sides.
I'm impressed, and you have planted a seed in my head, and I thank you for that, now show us how you do and inside bend on angle iron, then I will be really impressed 🙃👍
Fantastic! I have been playing around with the idea of adding chain guards/shields to my brush hog for tractor and need a radiused piece of angle iron to follow the shape of the deck. This will work perfect. Thanks for the video!!
. That is one YT idea I will be using. It is such a cool way of doing it, cheers, agree with Gary Skowbo's comment, although one may have to be careful not to round the blocks off too much. Thanks!
That is an amazing and simple tool for it’s purpose. It proves the OLD ways are still useful in our age of technology. Thank You for the informative and educational video. Have A Great Day! 😁
Very nice idea. I have not seen it done this way. When I apprenticed with a blacksmith a LONG time ago, I was taught a technique to bend angle iron with two bending forks. What I was taught was to "bend the opposite leg the opposite way with about 3 times the radius". So in this case, to bend the angle with an inside=up, bend it in with 3x the bending radius of the flat laying on the bottom. It looks weird, because the first bend looks like a corkscrew, and them when you bend the tighter radius it comes back and lays flat. When Francis Whitaker demonstrated this at a conference hosted by the shop I was apprenticing with, he reversed the bend half way so it made a large "S" that would lay flat like you do at the end. Anyway, thank you for the idea. I have a project where if I use angle iron for it, I would need to do lots of bends, and this might just might make it faster for me.
@@Fab2Ku, you are most welcome. As a note, I looked around to see if anyone has ever video'ed the technique that I mentioned, but I was unable to find it. Maybe when I am better from being sick I will make this video as it is useful.
@ Fab2Ku *** You come up with the most clever ways to work steel to the shapes you need. Not many people can think of these ways, except to use heavy expensive machinery. Great job!
I really need to get a hunk of rail line like that. Thank you a wonderful video. Your little brother has talent too. I'm a mason by trade who loves creating thing in concrete too. One of my reasons for learning metalwork is to make my own plant pot moulds and designs. I have been using timber and ply but it is limiting in it warps and wears-out quickly. I love your ingenuity!
Amazing. Some clips show sheds/workshops kitted out with £1000s of equipment. This guy hasn't even got a half decent club hammer {note the handle!}, yet he still turns out 'stuff'.
Like many of the commenters, I too am shocked. At first it looked like poor workmanship, but man that tool it minimal but works much better than expected. Well done!

@@isaacolubodun i understand that you are a religious weirdo for one. Two, you seem to be trying to explain to even yourself that b/c ‘no one really knows anything’ its okay for you to not have ‘success’. And furthermore, this demonstration on ‘bending’ angle iron is probably the second worst way.
@@zefrum3 I would have said it was a very effective way given the outlay, yes there are very effective machine tools and bending jigs, but if you don't have one or have access to one this is a way of making do, I have used a hydraulic pipe bender to bend flat strip (side on) with home made dies, it took a while but I achieved a smooth constant curve, my bender was very much like his without the hammering, I applaud the mans ability to achieve with so little.
I am very surprised that the Angle to be bent - was not heated first. Nevertheless a great simple idea that works when you have very limited resources. Not many homes have a chunk of Railway Line handy at home.
