ideas for making my own tube straightener on the cheap

[brans87]

Looking for ideas on making a tube straightener on the cheap to straighten the coils you get to do brake and fuel lines for couple vehicles.

Anyone here made one?

Looks like need some metal blocks and some rollers with groove for sliding doors on a house.

Just looking for ideas cause don't want to spend $200 bucks and figured least one or 2 guy's here might be able to help out in ideas.

this guy made one thats beefy as hell . but you could skim it down to a more light duty unit.

i just undo a half a coil and put my foot on it on the concrete floor and unroll the rest against the floor . works about 90% once you get the hang of it . done it for years like that .

yup that is kinda like i want make it adjustable. just got to figure out wheel sizes for brakes lines for wifes C10 and fuel line for her truck then what sizes I might need for my pro-touring chevelle with LS motor in it.

Tools are cool but hate spending $$$$ every time.
