Hi there,
I have a motor bike which I would like to make a rack for it. I can't buy it as it was never made for those bike, and it will be too expensive anyway.
So I am thinking about making one.
I was thinking about getting a pipe of 1cm with and maybe 0.6 or 0.8 of thickness but it could be smaller or bigger.
And I am wondering if it is easy to bend such pipe, I was planning to fill the pipe with sand and use a mix propane-butane to warm it and simply bend it ?
However I am wondering if such technique can be use on steel, it works with copper but it is more flexible than steel.
So what should I use to bend the steel and if you have any recommendation for me I am all hears.
Thanks a million
