Metalcraft Scroll Bender MK2/2H Former
The Metalcraft Scroll Bender MK2/2H Former is a bigger version of our entry level MC017 MK1/2 scroll bender. It produces larger scrolls and can work with larger metal than the MK1/2. Again this works as a hand drawn scroll bender jig, where the end of the steel bar is gripped in the center and pulled round the inner segment by hand. Larger scrolls are made by dropping in place the larger outer segment.
The tool is also supplied with a special starting lever as an aid to help form the initial part of a scroll when using using bigger steel sizes. It produces flat and consistent wrought iron scrolls.
Operations and Features
