Ha ha, funny!
Yours puts mine to shame. I guess I'd better get off my butt and paint mine, so it looks less hack.
I'm 100% certain it won't be two-tone though....I'm not that patient. Yours looks fantastic!

. We spray painted the entire thing then just rolled the outer plate. Not too hard.

i dont know if you designed and built your but i found a guy in russia that build his own and in my opinion it is the best bender you could make or buy

Carl designed and built these, they take a standard JD2 Model 3 die.
That is a sweet bender for sure, but I'm pretty sure he's in that a LOT more time and money than we are.
I couldn't be happier with mine. I converted my old JD2 to hydraulic, but the footprint was huge and it was still horizontal. This one seems a lot easier to use being vertical.
I'll post some video when I run it sometime.

Is that just a Cal-Ranch ram? How much fluid does your system hold? Mine uses like 3 quarts I think. Maybe a gallon.

I bought that ram about 10 years ago at NPS but I'm sure it's identical to a Cal Ranch ram. I used about 3 1/2 - 4 quarts in mine. (I lost a little when I rerouted some lines)

Why would you talk me out of giving you money... :wtf: :guilty:
I like that one too, very cool, simple.

Because I'm a very poor businessman.
It might not make sense for everyone to buy a new bender, if they have an existing bender they can cobble together a mount for.
