Mandrel Bent Tubing

[Paul Parkanzky <parkanz1@msu.edu>]

The race car needs a new roll cage.  After reading the safety requirements 
I determined that a custom made cage would best suit my needs.  The rub is 
that all of the cage's tubing must be mandrel bent.  Is there a way to do 
this on the cheap?  My original plan was to use the uniloader to bend 
tubing around some sort of jig.  Now I see that Mandrel bending is quite 
involved and requires expensive equipment.  Is there a poor man's way out?
