I'm told that bending is easy with NiCopp. Did you use a bending tool or just do it by hand?

Bending by hand would be easy, however I used a tool to bend for a cleaner look. I also used an angle finder, and cut a 4” piece, marked where my tool would line up, and used that piece to mark my finished line.

Thanks for the link. That make a lot of simple sense.

Agreed, I didn’t come up with it but it truly does help when you are following a straight line such as an axle or crossmember.
