The rear end of my chassis has right angle corners and not rounded ones like everyone else. Is there a place that will do pre bent 90 digree corner peices so i can cut off the corners and weld in the new ones?

Cut them off and put a bent strip of 25x3mm in instead.

hmmmm, thats an idea

Maybe use some bent round tube so you get a nice radius when you tap the rear sheet around the corner?

It's not structural so it doesn't matter what the tube is from. Cut it off an old school chair if necessary!

I used some old gas pipe and bent it round the vice with a big hammer!

Cheers,

Shopping trolley?

Not that I'm suggesting one of Tesco's fleet would give up it's life for the cause, but you know, if you happened to come across one that had escaped.

Cheers

Mike

some good ideas there, cheers

Funny you mention Tesco, as they just announced they're coming to the U.S. This should be interesting.

Certainly better than WalMart mate!

old bike handle bars are good for this.

Racer/ kids bikes tend to have some good 90 deg bends

I bought a couple of 90° weld bends for 1" steel pipe it is a bit thicker in the wall but is easy to get a flush weld to 1" thin wall tube.
