Guinness draught!

and the reference was to ascertain how good these bends & notches where :)

both front bars are now done aside from cutting to length and notching which I cant do at the moment anyways.

I also notched the taxi bar, its not high enough, but I didn't want to notch it too short and was trying some angles to suit the 10 degrees in the main hoop, it needs a few degrees adjustment but all turned out pretty well!

Damn, that cutter is working brilliantly :thumbup:

Will make welding nice and easy and get a great finish.

yeah the notcher is so much easier than a hole saw and hand held drill!

the bender is model 32 and the notcher is the notch master from here http://jd2.com.au/
