I do a lot of scrolls in 10mm (3/8) round. Im thinking of making a machine
to do the scroll part. The ends are flattened under the power hammer then I
heat the length up , about 18 inches and bend it around a jig, its got about
630 degrees in it, a full 360 then 270 more. Has anyone seen plans on the
net, or built their own? I have some ideas but its always easier to copy
something that you know works. Id probably do this hot still. I have a 1 HP
motor spare but no reduction gearboxes on hand, or was thinking maybe I
could use a pneumatic ram. Any suggestions?
