Cool Big hoops formed on a 49 dollar compact bender.

Here is how i do the big hoops for the safety ladders i make. Just mark the centerline and start stop line and cut a template the radius you want. Start the kinks and check after 3 or 4 and adjust to suit. If its overbent just spring it back open. Underbent twang it some more. Enjoy...Bob
