How long does the bender shoe have to be? How deep can you bore on your lathe? Long enough that you could bore the square stock quarter the length, then split the two bored pieces making them into four pieces? Did you watch TOT’s build of his Hosfeld bender? I’m pretty sure he addresses this, but it’s been years. Most benders I’ve used had a shorter shoe, maybe you could get away with a shorter two piece?
