Re: [ATM] bending square aluminium tube

You really need to make the rollers from metal rather than wood.  Wood will
work but you need to do some good precision work as the three wheel method
needs to hold the positions of the three wheels precisely.  Any slop or
flexibility will make the end product kinky as the forces aren't consistent.
Also, for small diameter bends, you need to do the work in stages til you
get where you need it.
