Sad that people are missing the point here. He has made a template for a pipe that will be part of a custom header - that's the wire bit he's holding in his hand. This technique s letting him bend multiple custom radii as required to ultimately allow the pipe to contour to the header design. You can see the header set-up on the bench, and the heavy cut dies just beyond and to the left of the vice. The trick is knowing how much heat to apply and over what surface area, always testing the resistance of the material by feel (pipe extension, sleeved), and literally "going with the flow". You can't just pick up a torch and "have at it" - this would take a lot of experience over many years, great skill and, most of all, a great feel for the material. That's VERY hard to teach! This guy is as artist. I would like to see anyone try using a pipe bender to achieve this. How many radii of different bends do you you get with a pipe bender set-up for one size of pipe or tube? ANSWER: just the one. Hats off to this craftsman. Awesome skills!!
It's very cool that he's making custom headers and it' obvious he done it before. Some in the comments are in awe that he's not kinking the pipe. You can sèe in the end of the video that the ends are both capped, the pipe is full of sand. I'd love to see a finished header.
having bent 100's of pipes using heat, i can tell you first hand that to bend that thin wall tubing without it collapsing or even getting a little flat is an art all it's own. What a testament to his extreme talent. If that's Titanium tubing, that just makes it so much more impressive. O', not sure but I think he's using Oxygen/Hydrogen in his torch, and not acetylene or propane. I would also add for you "filled with sand" folks, it's still not that easy even if you do full with sand. Be my guest and try this with or without sand. BTW, do it with .030 wall Titanium tubing like he is using. if this shit was as easy as you all claim, and fucking idiot off the street would be doing it. Way more involved here than simply bending the tubing also.
lol you're getting upset about something you've made up in your head. nobody is claiming the sand makes this any easier, they are just pointing out its probable existence. why are you so defensive over nothing?
Because of the heat. The heat required to bend metals without stressing them is more than most (any?) fluids can handle. If cold bending with tools you could use fluids, but then you can't bend by hand.
till youve tried it , you will never appreciate the talent this man has ,,, full of sane , springs etc , its just not easy , this isnt a garden hose hes working with.
People who know what they're doing also wear PPE; The two are not mutually exclusive and cemeteries/hospitals are full of people who "knew what they were doing."
@@DiffEQ They're about as close to being "mutually exclusive" as it can get. We are in a time where every idiot without a clue has the acronym "PPE" rolling off his tongue and has his head so far up the posterior of insurance and 'safety' that he doesn't know where their cheeks end and his shoulders start. In general, when you see a person like this, executing the level of craftsmanship that you most likely haven't the first goddamned clue about, it's a given that they understand the risks involved and behave accordingly. It really isn't so hard to understand, unless a person is of you're ilk and thinks donning every piece of 'safety' attire and dayglow hoopla is going to keep you out of the hospital and cemetery.
That shows that the human still the best machine. He has a good understanding of what the metal is doing, what is going to do and where it needs to be and for how long to apply heat for.
Close radius??? That bend radius is clearly more than 1.5 times the diameter of the tubing and is considered a long bend/sweep. It is not a tight or close radius.
He is a skilled craftsman, working at his own comfortable pace. The video shows you can get very good results doing it the old school way. I believe he may be using a mix of oxy/propane for his torch. Much cheaper than acet. Good video.
@@SirCavemaninthewest Why would he use MAPP gas???? LP is readily available and relatively inexpensive. Propane will fule a 3,600 deg. F flame so why would anyone use expensive MAPP gas which tops out just 200 deg. higher???? It's definitely not hydrogen... which is just absurd on its face. UGH. People.
Really? He's heating a granular-filled tube and bending it while bringing it to plastic deformation temperature. Same process with plastics... just more heat with metal. That's hard for you to understand?
hotsweetness99 can't and can is as simple as leaving out the t when typing lol, you can do what ever you want to if you wanna do it bad enough. You just have to try, its not like he woke up and just started doing this stuff he learned it over many years and no doubt many failures too like all of us mechanics and fabricators 20 yrs ago i didnt know how to take apart and rebuild a motor at all but now I can do it pretty much with my eyes closed cause I've done it so many times
OneBad88S10 no no what I mean is for kids growing up, the distraction of technology along with what we are forced to do in school does not help at all. in my high school the shop classes all got shut down and locked up. students could no longer learn hands on skills, parents wanted kids to become engineers with no practice hands on experience. auto class? shut down. wood shop? shut down. machine operation? shut down. computer programing class? full full full! what the heck do you expect kids to do when they don't even have the opportunity? not to mention the social stigma of manual labor. where I grew up, people who did manual labor (like me, a self taught mechanic) are looked at as stupid idiots. people in school always asked me "why would you want to fix something, when you can just buy another one?"
@@jesselawson1169 yes, but I am a rarity. Nobody else thought like I did. They all wanted office jobs. Maybe it was just my location? I will have hope.
I'm not sure if I'm seeing this right but, was he at some places pushing on the pipe (toward the clamp) and leaning at the same time? Sort of finessing the arc to change as needed by leaning AND pushing? Don't know if that's what I saw but one thing is sure... this guy has skill. Very cool.
This is a very simple concept. More heat=more stretch. You dont want to apply heat in one area, you want that stretch to be gradual so you dont end up getting that section so thin that it would break open. He is basically stretching the outer edge of the pipe, while inside edge is just bending. heat makes inside edge to bend easier and allot more heat on the outside, allows outside edge to stretch.
At variance with some of the comments below and based on having done this many times to make my own racing car exhausts: The gas is almost certainly oxy-propane which is quite hot enough to get steel barely red. The tube will be packed solid - really solid - with silver sand (MAKE SURE IT'S DRY or the steam pressure resulting from water vapour will split the tube). The heating is slow because you have to get the sand hot right through - otherwise the tube will kink. Pros will get annealed tube but it can be done with CDS - you just have to heat it at the bend and also ahead of the bend to anneal it. Much tighter bends than shown in this video are possible but you will have to pause and repack the tube because there is inevitably more stretch than compression in the bending so the volume increases. Usual method of packing sand is to weld a cap on one end of the tube, stand the tube vertically open end up, pour the silver sand in the top and tap the tube wall up and down with a spanner for a good while to settle the sand and get more in, then drive a wooden plug in. Packing the sand in really tight is key and also giving the sand time to get hot right through before bending - i.e. patience.

Pops at his best,, but lads..this is how we do it in shed land,, and indeed have been doing it this way for years,, But I have to say..I fill my pipes with sand, so I don't crease or ripple. Pops here is heating and bending bare back.., that means hollow pipe,, also that's stainless he's working with..which means,,, the more you bend the harder it gets,, pure skill..

it's NOT filled with sand. If it's closed off it is to prevent oxidation or to help contain heat. otherwise it would create a draft and cool it making it much harder to bring it to, and maintain critical temp.
You can't just pick up a torch and "have at it" - this would take a lot of experience over many years, great skill and, most of all, a great feel for the material. That's VERY hard to teach! GIVE ME A DAY

When I was a kid (12-15) that's how I bent things tubes squares. My father had a straight acetylene torch. He would get mad if I used it all up. Cause in his spare he would be silversmithing Navajo jewelry. I mean when you need that tubing bent and had the resources. It's worth the ass wiping. Cuz I used to like to build things. In my late teens I started in to customs of the 50's cars still do it. That was around 1989 started torching up things, and brazing.

It does not show him filling the pipe with anything.

Close radius compound angle bend.....thank you teacher, for the demonstration. .👏👏👏👏👏👏
Close radius??? That bend radius is clearly more than 1.5 times the diameter of the tubing and is considered a long bend/sweep. It is not a tight or close radius.
beautiful. hard to see how anyone can miss the point unless they have no idea what they're looking at.
as a weld/fab guy- damn it's impressive what control some people have with heat.. I can only hope to one day understand it that well
Hoping is the slowest possible way to attain something.

No fine sand in side of pipe? Good tecnic. Thank you sensei Yoshimura.

+robaxx that's probably what the taped off ends was. It'll most likely kink if more than a few degree bend even with heat.

Look closely you'll see the tube is closed off on each end, the tube is full of sand to keep it round during the forming process.
it's NOT filled with sand. If it's closed off it is to prevent oxidation or to help contain heat. otherwise it would create a draft and cool it making it much harder to bring it to, and maintain critical temp.
even if it where filled with sand, whats your point?
Still an impressive skill ....
The sand is needed so the pipe doesn't kink or collapse and to keep it round where its bent, it's not rocket science, I've done this many times

Could you bend stainless steel this way? What does he put inside the pipe?
the gas and 30 mins spent is a dam lot cheaper than a mandrel bender required to bend exhaust. also its a skill
Pipe bender stays in shop..gas goes in the air...price of bottles exceed price of bender after 10bottles...
Vince Vega Customs a mandrel bender is 40 thousand a pipe bender is something else.
Can YOU do that with a mandrel bender? Note the form... control the heat...kz1000 wicked custom exhaust versus cost of gas ??? Anyone? Anyone?
