Default RE: How do you bend a header?

tmproff,

I've had good results using a bench vice and torch. Mount header in vice and heat with torch. Careful not to over het the pipe as it has a thin wall. apply flame and heat in short bursts till the metal starts to give a little. I used a wood dowel in the open of the pipe to apply force.

Hope this helps!
