The kinks you can plug the ends with pvc pipe and then put a tire valve on one heat up the pipe and then fill the pipe with air it'll pop out for the most part
@Disgruntled Veteran Right, but how would heating up the pipe cherry red effect the structural integrity of the pipe? Would it make the pipe more prone to cracking or breaking from the tempering?
That would depend on how the metal was treated what metal it is. thickness how hot you heat it how much you stretch it can all have an effect on integrity
Filling the pipe with sand should help. Placing sleeves or curved pieces of steel under the rollers may help.
Thanks for the video, I find it extremely informative. Any guesstimate on hours taken to build your system and cost?

Wouldn't heating up the pipe help with bending?
Sorry I didn't try that, mainly because I didn't have a way to do that. I will keep that in mind for future attempts. Thanks
@@peaceplentyhomestead1019 I honestly don't know if it would help or not. Just an idea.
