Very nice dukes!!! But where is the degree ring?

And nobody that's ever run a shear calculation on a bolt, or seen many of the rolls with bolt in cages will, either :eek:

I've got a pair of sawzall's Chris :eek:

Bring him out to Corona, John - plasma cutters can be your friend :)

That's a great looking tube twiddler. The only thing it doesn't have is a drink holder!

A "bolt in" cage is better than no cage.

Plus, we all know that bolts aren't intended to support a large shear force, so you shouldn't use them for such a force in the first place. What "bolt in" cage MFR uses bolts in shear? I have never seen one that does (not saying there isn't any, I just wanna know so I am sure to never point someone towards that MFR).

As for seeing a roll with a "bolt in" cage, I have seen them. The cages are usually destroyed, but the drivers/passengers all walked away. The cage therefor did it's job.

A "bolt in" cage is better than no cage.

Thank you, my feelings too. A bolt-in would work for me since I'll not be doing ultra hard core stuff, just looking for a little added protection w/o having to alter much if anything. This is possible.

B&T TJ

Tom,

You dont need to be doing "ultra hard core stuff" to need a nice cage. A wrong line at TDS (which is usually very easy stuff) can result in a nasty roll. Usually the wrong line rock crawling will result in your Jeep on its side, but not upside down. Unless of course, you end up with your nose or rear pointing in the air, and go nose over tail or vice versa. Which Ive seen some close calls.

Anyway, as theyve said, a bolt in is better then nothing.

Tam :)

You dont want to do that! All the cool kids jeeps still look like jeeps. :D :no:

Yes! :D

Tam, I almost experienced that head over toe deal on the Friday night run where my front driver side went about 6ft in the air....... good thing I brought more then one pairs of shorts. :oops:

Lines starts behind ME!

Hey Chriss, ya gotta spend money to make money.
Anyway that thing looks sweeter in person than on line. it rocks

Hey Chriss, ya gotta spend money to make money.


Trust me, I know :no: :D

Nice set up.

Be preppared for total frustration as you make stupid mistakes, which normally only occur after about the 3rd or 4th perfect bend in a peice you manage to mess up the last one hahah

I am about to buy some more dies for mine, I wish i could swing for the hydro set up, but for now I pull the handle.

And pull the handle.... and pull... you get the idea.


Cages are alot of fun to build. Its kinda like a giant art project that you need an understanding in engineering to do.


Here is my latest bending creation

Hey Dan, Good to hear from you. Nice work there!! :D Looks like everything is going well for you.

Chris: I'm willing to sacrifice my Jeep... I mean.... I've been looking at getting a sport cage built if you are looking for some income to pay off that fancy tube bender thingy machine...... :-P


p.s. I'm still taken back how GREEN your grass is. wow.

Here is my latest bending creation
Wicked - Do the beers come with it? :P

Nah the beer is optional. However I like to include it in all of my projects so it doesnt feel left out.


Chris- yeh Im doing okay. Been super busy, working full time, doing fab work on the side and helping to build our new comp buggy every weekend almost 4 hrs away, its been hectic. Nice to spend a few days messin with the bender
