Today I bent my first landing gear. Overall the process went well. The protractor was a good addition. I need to use longer bolts so I can easily remove the gear, after a bend, without having to remove the bending form. Also once I am comfortable that the bender is working good I will tack weld the bolt head and washer so no need to use a wrench.

To measure the accuracy of your LG, you measure from corner to corner. The measurements should be equal. I did this on the gear leg bend and also after the axle bend. Final test; check it for level.

This bending brake is a keeper. LOL.
