The ring bender
is used for bending half round, flat, and engraved blanks into circular
ring shapes. It may be used in special industrial forming applications.
The mandrel is stepped to accommodate various rings sizes and two matching
dies are provided.
Mount the tool
to the bench with the single large bolt, which threads into the housing
from below. Attach the handle
to the mandrel with the sets Mount the die for the shape of metal to be used in the base. To do this, rotate the mandrel out of the way and position the die so that the steps match. Lower the mandrel on the die, thus aligning it with the groves. After the die is aligned, tighten the setscrews to hold it in place. |
| To
round the ring blank, rotate the handle enough so that the blank can be
started into the space between the lower die whose radius most closely
matches the final ring size, and the mandrel.
Watch the results, advance the blank in small increments, bending and bottoming, until it becomes a circle and ends butt. |
