wow, i kinda missed that t-bone finally released some corally stuff, the pattern should be the same but if it sticks out far enough, no ideaI’m wondering if the tbone bumper for the python would fit… same gearbox, maybe it’s the same pattern too

Looks good, homemade is always nice I have made several ones, i use HDPEI make bumpers out of kydex all the time. .125” kydex for bumper part and .090” for any little support pieces. Make a template out of cardboard, cut it out, drill/counter sink holes, bolt it on, heat it up and bend it how you want it.
I'm still convinced that the material that Tbone uses is Kydex based.I make bumpers out of kydex all the time. .125” kydex for bumper part and .090” for any little support pieces.

nah not Kydex, well they're all thermoplastics in a sense but T-Bone uses Delrin, basically a trademark name for Acetal plastic. With regular home garage equipment Acetal plastics are much harder to work with and form than Kydex imo. Also a price difference.I'm still convinced that the material that Tbone uses is Kydex based.

I use a 30 yr old black and decker, nothing fancy. It has two temps and I use the higher one. I don’t know what temp it’s bendable at but you definitely need gloves.@jimbobjr how are you heating up the Kydex? Will a cheap heat gun suffice?
No definitely not kydex. Tbone will pull right thru the holes (I have a box full), kydex will not but can crack. I back them with angled washers made out of screws. I still run a couple tbone but as they break I make my own. Tbone are ok but I’d rather make my own.I'm still convinced that the material that Tbone uses is Kydex based.
I’m tellin ya, it’s time for a TBR one…I'm beginning the think my 1 ton Ram's bumper may be the ticket. Broke the inner loop today.
