Pipe Bender, Crimper
 ✖  |
Winner of a top "Farm Invention of the Year" award was this pipe cutter and crimper, invented by Greg Vonthien. Resembling a log splitter, it's equipped with a hydraulic cylinder and special die which allows it to cut and crimp (for making strong welds) pipe up to 1¢ in. in dia. at most any desired angle.
"It's a must for every livestock producer who builds yard fences and handling-sorting corrals out of used pipe," says. Greg, shown holding a sample of the various cuts and crimps the invention makes. Greg plans to manufacture and market it commercially. The go-anywhere machine can handle pipe of any length and is expected to retail for about $200.
