REQUIRED MATERIAL
Flat steel bar thickness 4.8 mm, max. width 50.8 mm.
1 flat steel bar 254.0 mm long
BENDING PROCEDURE
Mark the locations of the bends. See the picture.
Bend No. 1
Slide the work piece in the machine all the way to the mark
No. 1 (pic. A) and perform 45° angle bend. Check the
angle and move on to make the following bend. To make
the second 45° angle bend easier, make a mark on the
ring or place a stopper there, instead of the mark.
Bend No. 2
Slide the work piece in the machine all the way to the
mark No. 2 (pic. B) and perform 45° angle bend.
Check the angle.
Bend No. 3
Slide the work piece to the mark No. 3 (pic. C) and
perform 45° angle bend. Check the angle. Remove
the stud that holds the sharp-angle die in place.
Remove it from the machine.
Final steps
Grind and sandblast all sharp edges.

Using a chalk, mark the bend location on both flat rods (length 225.4 mm). See the picture.
Bend No. 1
Slide the work piece in the machine all the way to the mark
No. 1 (pic. A) and perform 45° angle bend. Check the angle
and move on to make the other bend. To make the second
45° angle bend easier, make a mark on the ring or place
a stopper there, instead of the mark.
Bend No. 2
Slide the work piece in the machine all the way to the mark
No. 2 (pic. B) and perform 45° angle bend. Inspect the angle.
Bend No. 3
Turn the piece (see picture C) and slide it to the mark No. 3
and perform 45° angle bend. Check the angle.
Bend No. 4
Turn the work piece around according to picture D and move
it to the mark No. 4 and perform 45° angle bend. Check the
angle. Remove the stud that holds the sharp-angle die in
place. Remove it from the machine.
Final steps
Stitch weld both "U" pieces together. Then weld the
152.4 mm long part (the back side of the letter "B") to the
