Stainless tube bending

 Does anyone know of a SOR shop that can roll and bend 31.8mm staino tube without crushing the tube? Cheers

Bend Tech Maddington will be able to do it no probs.

 It's a shame mate there was a guy in my units who specialised in small tube bending but retired at the start of the year.

Thanks fellas, I got Auswide stainless to do it today and it turned out great! It's for a rocket launcher I'm building and if someone can tell me how to upload photos from an iPad I'll post up photos as it comes together.
