    I've said this before. Dante does excellent metal work. he was too modest to mention it, but he used very little filler. All that pretty work is in metal.

    Dante is a devil with the hammer and hell with the torch. And he does it in a time warp of a garage.

    Very cool. Did you heat the tubing or bend it cold, and how thick of a wall is it?

    i bent it cold. i filled the conduit with sand so it wouldn't kink. its a 1/2" conduit and the thickness is about 1/8".
