Bending Conduit

This week we're trying to get the roll bar on the frame. First, however, we need to make the roll bar. Which means we need to bend conduit. Which, as it turns out, is very, very difficult. We have a pipe bender, we're just not too good at using it. So... hopefully we'll get it to work...
