Hi all:
 
> Is it customary to use a torch  to heat rebar when bending it?

  No it is cut and bent by `hand' with a small ground positioned 
50 pounder that the entire body leans into the 4 foot long lever.
  Like a sheet metal brake with a very long handle, but for only 
a 1 inch wide sheet of metal.

      I upgraded to LINUX, the more I use it, the more I love it.
        It doesn't do everything for you, you must program it.
