Metalcraft XL Pro Twister complete with Basket Maker
This variant still operates as the Metalcraft XL Pro Twister but comes complete with special collars (known as Basket Maker) for holding and forming baskets out of pre-welded square or round bar clusters (two sizes). These look great in stylish gate, fence and other wrought iron projects.
Our video clip shows how this clever attachment is used to twist and then counter twist and compress the welded bar cluster into a beautiful looking basket in one of two sizes. When added to the basic twisting capability it makes this an incredibly versatile ornamental iron machine.
This version of the Metalcraft XL Pro Twister comes complete with Basket Maker.
