Anyone had any experience trying to form/bend S.S. tubing (7/8")? <br /><br />I'm going to try and form a frame around the windshield of my center console. I don't know if it's best to cold bend a couple of 45 degree angles or if should be heated first. <br /><br />I was going to make a form with the angles I needed and just cold bend it, but I'm not sure if this is the best way.
