The recessed end portions were bent with a more sturdy fixture than used for other parts earlier in the build.











Thanks for looking.
Stefan

Always fun trying to get the correct radius when bending around a mandrel like you are doing. If it's not right you have to keep turning down the mandrel diameter till the spring back is where you want the radius to be.
Sometimes when I bend 180deg bends , the mandrel needs to be maybe 1/4'' smaller diameter than my finished bend.
