I need the alum with black rubber insert! I have to do carpet first!

 

[Knotty Girl]

Heck we might get good at this!

 

[Patchman]

I'd like to be good at it before I do my boat! :grin:

 

[Knotty Girl]

OK I'll be the sucker and go first.

 

[Disturbed]

What alloy is that aluminum?  I can probably find the documented bend radius for it.  :wink:

 

[Patchman]

I think we just recruited more help! :smile30:

 

[Knotty Girl]

Dude I will take all the help I can get.  Disturbed come take a look! jump.gif

I would assume it is 6061-T6 but very well could 3003,much easier to bend than 6061 but the 6061 has better corrosion resistance and added strength????

What another volunteer?

Bring all the help on clap.gif. He went over my head though. The number thing lost me. crazy.gif

If that rail is made out of 6061T6, it will never make that tight of a bend.  Probably better off with 2024.

I thought if it don't bend, grab bigger hammer! think.gif

Kinda going to wrong way on the 2024? I would think it would have less duticilty but i know just enough about aluminum to get myself in trouble. Also i would lean more towards the mfg would use 3003 as it is way cheaper than 2024

same thoughts here,  or a bigger C-clamp  think.gif

Whatsamatter, none of ya know how to use a torch? Sheesh... :grin:

 

[KONA77]

ya'll have gone just way to hi tech,  with this number game....  :smile24:

huh,  i've got one of those funny looking things.....  think.gif

different grades of aluminum

 

[Disturbed]

6061T6 is too hard to make a sharp bend.  It will break.  I'll have to look up the radi calculations tomorrow at work.  We'll get to the bottom of this Henry.  I would hate to see you waste any money.  Boats are expensive enough.

Wow again I will take all the help I can get.  This is awesome! clap.gif
