I used a hydraulic pipe bender once I fount the right mandrel it archery bent a lot better than people said it would I used 1 that was smaller than it should be so it kept it tight and from then on the bends are better I have just finished fitting it and I will post a pic when I get back form taking the dogs for a hair cut….fun
That pipe bender looks awfully familiar. A few of us have had trouble with those things but yours looks like a nice result. What was the diameter and thickness of the tube?
