I saw a video of an exhaust bending/almost extrusion machine once and I can't find it. It's a machine that basically spits out pre-bent exhaust tubes. Can I has the link?

Sure would have saved this guy some time at the welder!

Yeah, that's it. I thought the video I saw was exhaust tubing, but that's the deal. CNC bending. Amazing.

Thanks.

I often see these types of fabricated setups on the weldporn sites and people drool over them. It seems to me that a "properly" fabricated setup ideally would utilize more mandrel bends and formed metal, and less cut/weld, cut/weld, cut/weld every inch.

I guess if you were handy with a tig and only had a band saw at your disposal it'll get you scene points.
