[QUOTE="BC.YOTA, post: 378380, member: 6600"] Ya I def aint going air over hydraulic as I don't own my own compressor...yet. and rokcrler thanks , I have seen that writeup already and I do have a parts list from cebbys hydraulic conversion (he uses same stuff as on the mindspring.com writeup) so I know many people have used 1hp electric motor that does spin at 3450rpm like this one from northerntool.com [url=http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200329732_200329732]http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200329732_200329732[/url] item #105871 and were even able to bend 1.5'' x .25 wall one review said. but I cant find anyone with more info on the max size they can bend. I want someone to say my 1hp electric hydraulic is plenty for bending 2'' x .25 or .375 wall or no I wish I went wish something bigger like a 2hp motor and something with a little bigger pump (more gpm) I want to use a 2hp motor just because im like tim taylor....MORE POWER! and I don't want to be like "I wish I went a little bigger" down the road. But seriously I just want to know the pros or cons of 3450rmp vs 1800rpm for a bender or does it even matter. Like the 1800rpm will spin almost half as much as the 3450rpm, so will the bearings last longer? Will a 1800rpm be quieter? will the 1800rpm have more shaft torque? Or is this a pointless thread and I should just get the one that's simpler and cheaper to setup and not worry about motor rpm? I like to build stuff right the first time without worrying that's its gonna die within a year or two and take funding away from my toys/projects. ps my only quarrel with the jd2 electric hydraulic is price and not being able to bend a 90 degree bend in one stroke of their tiny ram. and I already bought a 3X24'' ram like cebby/mindspring both use in their hydraulic conversions. well I did get a little info off a guy in my same province but it wasn't enough or too specific. I thought with all the tube being bent on this site someone would be able to chime in. anyway he said " go with a 1.5 or 2 hp with a slow rpm speed. the slower the speed just makes it easier to control. I forget what my pump is but yes it can bend .250 wall tubing with no issues but it does not like 3/8" wall" that being said I still don't know what size tubing he was bending with .250 wall. I will post a pic of his bender as it kinda what im looking to build. [/QUOTE]
