i've never seen forged bends before... didn't know they did that. not sure why you would need to have exhaust piping made from forged material...i've heard of roll formed bends though.

nice to see another canuck doing some great fab work.

thats process piping..

its thicker then average exhaust material. but 10x's easier to fab

what do you use to cut your piping?

Agtronic

Thanks for the compliments guys!

I use a bandsaw for cutting, and make sure to clean / wash the pipes before welding.

Not sure what the pipes are called, but they aren't thicker than regular tubing. It's 1/16" thick. All I know is that it's A3 grade canadian stainless steel. Welds beautifully. We get it from a canadian supplier, not sure exactly where. If my bosses are cool with it, I'll get the name of the place.

Thanks again!

beautiful work - I especially like the S4 stuff. I am in Vancouver and desperately trying to source out some stainless in Canada and not have to worry about customs and such. If you can, I would love to get that info from you.

Thanks,

EJ

I'll try to find out tonight for you. I know of a place here in the west.

Nice work though, very clean.

extream_86

do you use a horizontal band saw, if so is it liquid cold or just a normal stand up bandsaw?

That's called sanitary tubing.Its used for food processing and dairies and things like that .Its usually 316-L and it is expensive.Sometimes you can pick it up at a scrap metal yard for a buck a pound.

looks like Vibrant, they are in Canada...

Thats just who makes it .But its called sanitary tubing.It comes in 90's and 45's and they have no legs on them .See those 90's he has ? Thats just how they come.No U bends.And that stuff will kill a band saw blade in about 3 cuts.

Unified Alloys is who I was thinking. Pretty sure they are in Vancouver also.

Thanks for the info - I'll look them up and see what I can find out here.

I used Vibrant 3" bends for my exhaust. I got em from Lordco, which isn't the cheapest place, but not too bad if you know the right account to put it under. At least there's no shipping/duty etc..

Agtronic

Thanks for the comments guys!

Also nice work posted in here by others!

I will try and get that source for the pipes for you guys on Monday.

I see the retainer for the balljoint in the right corner. I just did a LCA and balljoint on a 03 GTI.

Is that a stubby ratchet with a snap on screwdriver under that plastic plate? I only ask because that looks my screwdriver handel, and my soft grip ratchet looks like a diffrent handel (still snap on) and it looks like that ratchet has a screwdriver handel on it.

heres a pic of one of my ratchets and a screw driver if you think i'm on crack.

Agtronic

Nope, that's a snap on ratcher, and that's the handle that it came with. hehehe, so many different versions of these tools.

Some new pics!

good work mang

its weird the location of fabricators, its like they are all south or north of CT, but nothing actually in CT.
