For that shallow of bend, cut 3 degrees then rotate 180 degrees and reweld. A compression bender will just squish it. It you have a chopsaw you can fit an abasive blade and go. Same with the end cut.

I thought about cutting and welding but that sounds like more trouble than it's worth to me. I do have a miter saw but never thought it would work for metal as the rpm is a lot lower than a grinder.... noted!
So shops can't do mandrel bends? If not, will the "squish" be small on such a small bend? |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
