Here is the link to the new video we just put up. I am really excited about this video. It shows how accurate the new CAD systems are. I am amazed we can bolt a hundred parts together and then bend a tube that actually fits! After all these years of bending everything by hand.

It is really cool to see a bent tube fit so well into the chassis. Technology marches on and leaves those behind who don't jump on the bus.

And here it the embedded video.

Here is a calibration video. This is how you calibrate the CNC tube bender to compensate for different tube thicknesses, diameters, and materials. This is the video of the "push bending" or "roll bending" that I have been talking about. It is really quite cool to watch.
