I recently recieved my CWI. I have been considering doing qualification tests at the house, on the side.
I am setup well to do this, as far as codebooks, welding equ. etc. I do not have a setup for guided bend tests yet. Obviously, there are several options for bending equipment, but i want to keep my cost very minimal as i don't expect to perform alot of tests at this point. I can't justify an expensive hydraulic machine for the house. Does anyone have pics or ideas for a cheap setup. I could build one. I thought maybe someone has done this and might have a good idea. I have an idea of what i would like to build, but i was curious to see what others have used. I can tell from some of the posts, there are some more experienced CWI's on here.
