Looking at the metal bar bending thread reminds me of a need of my own.
Cringle irons.
I have a plan for a tool for making cringle irons. I do not have a milling machine, so I thought I could get somebody in Shanghai to knock me off a tool. They wanted to know how many thousand I wanted.
So, in short, I only want the cringle irons. I will accept big numbers (100s) of alternative inside diameters up to 5mm. As long as the price is not silly.
Ideally non ferrous metals.
Q. Does anybody know where I can get this done, or know any suitable ready made substitute? (see attached fig).
Or are there any engineers out there taking commissions? I will be looking for a lifetime's supply (approximately 100 of each ID up to 5mm ID at a convenient number for price/length of metal tube)
