    Article on Di-acro bender restoration....

    I just finished my second Di-Acro bender restoration, and the second one went much better than the first. The bearing re-pack is especially important. So I wrote up what worked for me:

    Check it out and tell me if you have any suggestions.

    Thanks!

    Nice write up

    Jeff,

    That is a nice article you wrote. I restored a Diarco #3 about 8 years ago. I use it for making ornamental iron parts. These benders are a real handy thing. I make all my own dies. Since that I have gotten a Model 1A but have not used it. We had a #3 bender in high school and we used it all the time to.
