Tube bending for RC scale fabrication - Building a scale RC rock crawler cage (Part 2)

This is a video on the basics of tube bending for 1/10 scale RC crawlers. I go through making a tube bending template and all the tools you require. This is primarily for Radio control rock crawling fabrication, but it can be applied to anything.

Nice tip definitely saves material

[@oldsonrc8744]

Many many thanks, Mr. Naumov, using a metal tubing template is fantastic. Thank you for sharing.

[@rossnaumov]

Any time my friend :)

[@NicholsRCGarage]

Thank you for this awesome technique! I used it last night and successfully put four bends into one long piece of tube exactly where they needed to be to match up with the part I'm trying to recreate to rebuild a plastic RC roof rack out of metal tube. This saved my brain from having to figure this out from scratch and potentially waste a bunch of tubing!

[@rossnaumov]

That makes me happy 😃 I love a success story. Thanks for letting me know.

Thanks man I wish you had a few more tips and tricks this is going to be my first cages and I’ll be trying to make a sprint car cage. And your two videos that you do have have helped a lot

I want to make a Functional truck roll bar / ½cage for my nitro Tmaxx big block, that I can Roll over & carry It by, This thing is so fat it snaps shaft pins when breaking.
I had made a "U" roll & carry bar from solid 8mm aluminium bar but all the braised joints broke. Its hard to work with, melting point of braising rod is only a little lower than aluminium so I melt that too.
What steel should I look for to try with?

[@jamesdidonato6861]

Amazing work, do you build cages for people? I would really love a cage for my tamiya yj crawler.

[@monster_fab_rc]

Very nice…

[@rossnaumov]

Thanks man!

[@ClarkyXPH]

Total boss!

[@rossnaumov]

Thanks mate

[@stpridgeline]

💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥

[@bipbip3D]

😍😍😍 so magnificent achievement, if ever one day you decide to sell I am a buyer, in any case very good work

[@rossnaumov]

Thanks so much! I appreciate that. I’m chuffed at how it’s turned out.

[@MrBassistfromhell]

Thanks for posting! Super informative. How do you go about designing something like that Jeep?

[@rossnaumov]

Thank you! No problem. I guess it all starts in my head with all the components I want to use. In terms of where I start. Really it's with the skid and work your way outwards from there. Have all your wheels, axles, body etc ready to go so you can work out stance, wheelbase and all the basic things. It's also helpful to make a 1.1 drawing to start your cage. I hope that helps somewhat.

[@ronduke3448]

How would the weight stack up with a drag car built out of the pipe?

[@rossnaumov]

That's a tough one. I've never built a drag car. Sorry I can't offer you help here.
