Ring Roller Bender with Hydraulic Assist (DIY)

[kess]

I decided to create this tool for my needs to bend a round bar ø12mm to build two trusses
to reinforcing my sheet metal bender.
It isn't a heavy duty tool but is a quick and easy build and do not required special tools or materials.
I made it with that I had in stock and the only extra things that needed was washers M27.

When I decided to make a roller, my initial thought was for a very simple tool and only for the bending of two arcs for my need to make two trusses to reinforce my sheet metal brake, and nothing more.
But after I had finished with my sheet metal brake modifications, I decided to add a second set roller-bases closer to the center roller, so my tool to be able to bend circles at smaller diameters.
And after that, I said to myself, why not and a removable wheel handle for the rotation, it is easy to made it now.
