JD2 Model 32 bender build!

[@MycSailor]

Went gun ho and painted the garage floor! That’s the bender parking markers

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Nothing a little acetone on a rag didn’t clean up.

[@turbolaser24]

Awesome bro! Another major fabrication tool!!!!!

[@Terry_Baker]

Awesome video Rob. Really like this bender set up.

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Terry Baker thanks you! It works like a champ.

[@Just_Josh_937]

I love that bender. I have the exact one in my shop. The 32 is a beast. I’ve bent 2” .250 wall DOT before with no problem. I’ve had it for about 6yrs now. Good choice. 🇺🇸😎🇺🇸

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Thanks! I’m loving it so far.

[@outdoorfuninthesun2393]

Just curious what degree bend you were able to do with that 2"

[@jakesteads]

nice i had a M32 before my Rogue, both great machines.

[@Thatguy-dk8zm]

Top job looks awesome would you be able to tell me the mounting bolt spacing for top plate I want to make stand before bender gets here.

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Yeah I should be able to do that. I’ll reply once I get the measurements.

[@Thatguy-dk8zm]

@@HaslipCycleWorks awesome thanks mate

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Looks like 70mm center to center. It’s been a little while since I built the stand but pretty sure it came with a plate to mount it to.

[@Thatguy-dk8zm]

@@HaslipCycleWorks thanks very much for that

[@michaelkleist9482]

👍👍on the bender sticker... that's tight

[@BackFire10mm]

Does Jd offer a conversion kit ?

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Not that I see on their site. You can buy a hydraulic version of one of their benders but I don’t see a conversion.

[@FreddyFunderbunz]

U didn’t have to bleed that jack? I had a helluva time getting mine to work laying horizontally

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

No it worked fine right out the box for me.

[@gonzalezliu86]

Cool video. I wish you showed more of the process such as the welding or assembly. I think that would enrich the content.

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

liu gonzalez tried to keep it short. Hopefully I didn’t skip over anything important.

[@kartnerds]

Put my model 3 together... Or just watch you do your 32? Welp here I am. 🤣 Pedestal came out real nice.

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Kart nerds lol, thank you.

[@kartnerds]

@@HaslipCycleWorks what Everlast welders you got there? I picked up an imig 140 a little bit back. Been looking at replacing my tig with one of theirs too.

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Kart nerds I have the powerarc 160sth dc tig and the power I-mig 200e

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Kart nerds I’m also running their power plasma 50s

[@kartnerds]

@@HaslipCycleWorks nice! They make some great stuff. Welds looked good!

[@jimcollins9316]

When you showed it bending, was that real time or sped up? Very nice video, Thank You!

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Sped up by 3x. I will be doing a comparison video using the same bender but air over hydraulic vs electric hydraulic vs manual in real time to show the speed difference. Thank you!

[@jarodmorris611]

If you don't have the means to weld it yourself, why would you be getting a jd2? Seriously curious if anyone has an idea.

[@HaslipCycleWorks]

Jarod Morris maybe you don’t have the skill or aren’t comfortable welding this. Maybe your welder doesn’t have the amperage or you are still running it on 110v because you haven’t stepped up to 220v. Maybe you don’t weld and just need to bend some tubes.

[@jarodmorris611]

@@HaslipCycleWorks - those are definitely possibilities. I hadn't though about the stress on the welds. That could be bad, very bad to find out your welds aren't up to it when it breaks under that amount of stress. Oh, and when I say "you" I mean that generally, not directed at you, though I realize that was not clear at all in my first comment.
