Wife got me a HF gift card for x-mass. Had my eye on those aluminum racing jacks for years now, went to pick one up and bamm. They have coupons for 25% off any single item on New Years day. Heads up for anybody looking to buy some junk.
for the earlybirds who plan to be hungover on 1/1...
NICE! I think it might be time to snag that roll bender I've been eyeing for oh so long...
Hmm did they go up in price semi recently?

Might've gone up a little bit. I think I paid $130ish for mine with a 20% coupon or something. The extra dies from Swag added a bit to the total. I sold it before I ever even used it.
I have had a retarted idea for those things for a long time now. Dont want to pull the trigger because I think I need something that will do a tighter radius and thicker wall.... Anywho, if you get one, next time your at the junk yard, pull a flywheel, a couple starters, a door lock switch, and two good sized relays (30A+). Weld the flywheel to the ship captains steering wheel on the bender, then make a mount for both starters facing against eachother with the correct spacing to engauge the flywheel teeth when energized. Use the lock switch and relays along with a 12V battery to turn the wheel back and forth.
A better solution would be a reversable AC motor, but the same concept.
here's some shit I'd do
