Help bending steel

Post by DrPaulsen »

Does anyone here have a torch that they'd be willing to let me borrow or come help me with for 30 mins? I bent a steel support arm on my pull-behind mower and I need to heat up the 1/2" thick frame bar to bend it back into place. My propane torch didn't come close to getting the job done and I'd rather use a torch than start trying to figure out how to safely drive electric current through it to get it hot enough.Image
