XS650 Junkie
Haven't been posting on here much lately. Mostly because of working furiously on my VW bus project. But now that is finished and being driven.
Couple of months back I bought a tube bender with hydraulic accuator and a hand pump from my neighbor. There are three bender dies, 3/4", 1", and 1 1/2". This is the mess of equipment I got for $250.00.
Along with the bender, I got a ton of scrap metal he had collected to make the stand. So this past weekend I made the stand pictured below. Came out way nicer than I'd hoped.
Next project on the list is a frame jig. I have all the steel I need and will get some neck cones from Chop Source.
I'm about ready to kick off another XS650 build.
