Here is the die that actually goes on top of the axle I just showed you. This die is for the "roll bending" or "push bending" of the 3/4 body tubes. Roll bending is really cool. If you have never seen it, you will not believe it. When we get it up and running, I will post a YouTube of it. We made this out of 4340 and man is it a pig to machine.
