Worlds most dramatic metal bender (hossfeld inspired)
I decided to have a go at making a universal metal bender, inspired by the hossfeld design. Thus far I've just got it as far as basically functional. I'll follow up with more actual usage stuff later. For now I wanted to try my hand at editing completely to a music track.

The floor around my bandsaw is littered with random off cuts that I never clean up. This week I come up with an attachment to at least try to gain some control over the mess.

This is an entirely non-invasive setup on my Warco wm-180 lathe
Using an arduino nano as the brains. I was curious to see how low cost and simple I could get away with and still achieve a system capable of threading
