bending round stock

admin

I would like to make a spice rake similar to this one, but I'm not sure what kind of jig I need to rig up for it, any idea's or possibly some pics, thanks for any info

Reply:ditto... fairly easy to do after you get the hang of it. get a few extra feet of material that you intend to bend to practice with. after that, it's all smooth sailing. plus, it'll give you an excuse to get a new toy.Later,Andy
Reply:Those look more like spirals than scrolls.  Hence, you can probably just wrap the wire around a round die, 1.5 twist, then open it do the desired dimensions.The spacing in a spiral is aways the same, while as a scroll progress the spacing also gets larger. Not trying to be techincal, Though if you line that rack you can more easily make a spiral jig than a scroll jig.
