    Why become a Subscribing Member?

    • In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).
    • Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

I am trying to bend a piece of 1/4" 2024T3 aluminum bar and man is that stuff tough! Bending Brake - nope! Vice and hammer routine - nope! I am considering making a mold out of wood with the proper bends in it and putting it in an arbor press. Is it time for heat?
