If anyone is bored have a look at the new bender from Rogue Fabrication, it's an absolute beast and in one of their videos they bend 2" solid bar!!!

It can be ordered in kit form and the dies aren't expensive, it's a shame the shipping cost to the UK is huge because the cost of the unit is pretty good
Interesting thing is is you do a search a member Roguefab from the USA had two posts on this site in 2014

8ob any and all info appreciated, if you have the time ill lap it up.
Turbo hows it going man ) yah i concur with armalites, the joy is in the building so lets try something new. New toys! New capabilities, fantastic.
Regarding selling a JD squared, I reckon i would spend 1500 (euros) and then sell it, for deff, for 800, but i dont think i would sell it.
I did this last night before looking at any cages, its all wrong, but still, thats what i came up with before my mind was influenced by anyone else.
Since then I ve been studying dakar truck crashes to see how they are built, and all the American 4x4 rigs, credit to them, they are serious. Also ROPS systems from mining trucks, any and all searches I can think of really to get ideas.
I actually think this might make a nice camper unit and could extend it over the cab. I like the curvature on the edges, be nice to skin it and not have it be square like a normal truck body

The pinzgauer factory rollcage is interesting. The tubeular chassis on the bremach flexes less than an inch at full articulation, so its stiff enough that i could build a similar cage.
It's a bit ambitious for a first go. definitely ambitious. I sectioned a bit out in the pic below, trying to figure out what they are doing there
