Jd Squared Model 32 Bender First Thoughts

[@kevinpunter7960]

Nice .. This will be at the top of my list for Santa !

[@wendelldement3240]

I finally got one...putting it together and I have an extra part (a spacer?)... At 1:14 in your video, you have the very part sitting on top of the bender. Did you find a use for that?

[@Mkbary9]

Looks like he has it under the die

[@ifitsnotbrokenfixit1193]

They are super nice to have on hand. The air over hydro is the only way to go.

[@j_norway_7449]

Electric over hydro is superior. lol

[@julioortega3263]

How big the compressor would be good

[@danhambrick6331]

Now that looks pretty handy.....

Greta video! I just setup my model 32 and that same large pin is struggle to get in and out but has gotten better

[@TestDontguess]

The more you use it the looser it gets

[@ddn6146]

I have the same bender and i have one question about it. How i can find out calibrated clr with out bend tech software?

[@jeremy8715]

Is it possible to buy the manual version and then get the hydraulic as a add on later?

[@TestDontguess]

Yes you can as the hydraulic kit comes with the change over parts, I know the cost is way higher but you’ll thank yourself for it

[@neilboyes25]

Good Day, thanks for the informative video... was wondering if you have a direct way I can contact you. Would like to ask you a few questions regarding your model 32 bender.

[@AndrewBrowner]

ive been looking at them contemplating if i want one, think ill pull the pin on it in the future just alot of investment right now when you need atleast 4 dies with it to be able to recoupe any money and have options when building different tasks, i like the square dies too i typically prefer building with square tube on my rigs to be unique as everyone uses round tube

[@TestDontguess]

no I totally hear you when a die is like 400 bucks, I know jd squared has square dies, however I wouldn't be surprise if all benders this style can interchange dies

[@AndrewBrowner]

@@TestDontguess i havent really seen any others of this style, if you find any cheaper dies to let me know, also the best place/way to purchase in canada would be good info, the machine isnt bad at 300-400$ without the cylinder, up to you if you buy their cylinder or find your own if hand bending get too tedious its the dies that are the killer i know they need to be precise and all but its just a couple chunks of steel i dont see it costing them over 80$ to make them in NA probably half that in the east

[@TestDontguess]

I purchased from KMS tools as they usually go on sale a few times a year

[@SteveRobReviews]

Nice , sure beats a manual version .

[@TestDontguess]

You need one at the camp

[@sytherpka]

How the heck do you get accurate bends on this thing, I struggle to get the right centre measurements

[@TestDontguess]

it takes practice plus having software makes it easier

[@sytherpka]

@@TestDontguess may i ask, what software do you use?

[@karmafarbus160]

look up TFS Tube bending basics there are 3 parts ,

[@Jim-ie6uf]

That’s slick!
